How to Convert ASCII to Decimal

Converting ASCII to decimal is a common task in computer programming. ASCII is a character encoding standard that assigns a unique number to each character. Decimal, on the other hand, is a base-10 number system that uses ten digits, 0 through 9. Converting ASCII to decimal involves converting each character to its corresponding decimal value.

Conversion

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to convert ASCII to decimal:

1. Choose the ASCII character you want to convert to decimal.
2. Look up the decimal value of the ASCII character using an ASCII table.

Example

Let's walk through an example to illustrate the process. Suppose we want to convert the ASCII character 'A' to decimal.

1. The ASCII value of 'A' is 65.
2. The decimal value of 'A' is also 65.

ASCII Table

Sample Code

This code requires @ilihub/code npm package to run.

import { AsciiToDecimal } from "@ilihub/code";

const ascii = "Hello World";

const decimal = AsciiToDecimal(ascii);
console.log(decimal);

// Output
// [72, 101, 108, 108, 111, 32, 87, 111, 114, 108, 100]
