MARK WICKENS Going back a bit to last issue, it is worth throwing out a “Congratulations!!!” to Derek, who won the Atomic Robot competition. Well done Derek for walking to the post office and being randomly chosen! From my perspective receiving the post cards, it very was nice seeing stamps from different parts of the world. It seems I can pretty much geek out about anything. Thanks for sharing. Anyway back to this issue.

    ASCII 1 ASCII El código ASCII (acrónimo inglés de American Standard Code for Information Interchange — (Código Estadounidense Estándar para el Intercambio de Información), pronunciado generalmente [áski], es un código de caracteres basado en el alfabeto latino tal como se usa en inglés moderno y en otras lenguas occidentales. Fue creado en 1963 por el Comité Estadounidense de Estándares (ASA, conocido desde 1969 como el Instituto Estadounidense de Estándares Nacionales, o ANSI) como una refundición o evolución de los conjuntos de códigos utilizados entonces en telegrafía. Más tarde, en 1967, se incluyeron las minúsculas, y se redefinieron algunos códigos de control para formar el Hay 95 caracteres ASCII imprimibles, numerados del 32 al 126. código conocido como US-ASCII. El código ASCII utiliza 7 bits para representar los caracteres, aunque inicialmente empleaba un bit adicional (bit de paridad) que se usaba para detectar errores en la transmisión. A menudo se llama incorrectamente ASCII a otros códigos de caracteres de 8 bits, como el estándar ISO-8859-1 que es una extensión que utiliza 8 bits para proporcionar caracteres adicionales usados en idiomas distintos al inglés, como el español. ASCII fue publicado como estándar por primera vez en 1967 y fue actualizado por última vez en 1986. En la actualidad define códigos para 33 caracteres no imprimibles, de los cuales la mayoría son caracteres de control obsoletos que tienen efecto sobre como se procesa el texto, más otros 95 caracteres imprimibles que les siguen en la numeración (empezando por el carácter espacio). Casi todos los sistemas informáticos actuales utilizan el código ASCII o una extensión compatible para representar textos y para el control de dispositivos que manejan texto.
