C Language Character Set - Basic Discussion About C Programming

Hi guys, in this section we will discuss about the C language character sets. So without wasting time let's get started.

    Like every language, C Programming Language has a set of characters that includes alphabets. digits, and special symbols, which help us to write our C programs properly. (256-characters)
Every C program contains statements:
  • Alphabets (A-Z) and (a-z)
  • Digits(0-9)
  • Special symbols(#,*,&,%,-,+,=, etc.)
    The compiler understands only binary digits(0,1) so w use ASCII values, to represent the characters, symbols, and signs for conversation between the computer and C language.

NOTE:

    ASCII - American Standard Code For Information Interchange, is a code for representing alphabet, symbols, and digits as numbers, with each character assigned a number between(0-127).
For more information about ASCII values, check out the ASCII values chart from their official site on google.

    That's all for this section, you can also watch videos on YouTube for more information about this concept.
