Introduction to ASCII values #30

Closed keerthi-ganiger closed 5 months ago

keerthi-ganiger commented 5 months ago

I feel like we should include the concept of ASCII values so that learners can get the difference between "apple" and "Apple" or other examples of similar kind.

Adding ASCII values would help learners understand how computers represent letters, numbers, and symbols. This knowledge helps them work with text more effectively, like checking if a letter is uppercase or lowercase, or converting between them. I would like to contribute to this issue !

Hello @animator Iam an contributer under GSSOC'24. Would be glad to have the chance to contribute on this issue under GSSOC'24

Ascii values are very helpful in compettive programming aspect. (I personally used ascii values many times in cp) If a person is directly starting to learn first coding language getting introduced to a ascii values is important. I would like to work on this issue by clearly explaining WHY (why is ascii there) , HOW (how it is helpful & used ).aspects.

Iam open to the feedback on any changes required.And kindly label the issue under gssoc (1/2/3) . Thank you!
