ISO/IEC 8859 is a joint ISO and IEC series of standards for 8-bit character encodings.ASCII includes the definitions for only 128 characters: 33 are non-printing control characters (many now obsolete) that affect how text and space are processed and 95 printable characters, including the space (which is considered an invisible graphic character). For example, lowercase ‘j’ would become binary 1101010 and decimal 106. The characters encoded are numbers from ‘0’ to ‘9’, lowercase letters ‘a’ to ‘z’, uppercase letters ‘A’ to ‘Z’, basic punctuation symbols, control codes that originated with Teletype machines, and the space (also known as white space).
Originally based on the English alphabet, ASCII encodes 128 specified characters into seven-bit integers. ASCII: abbreviated from American Standard Code for Information Interchange, is a character encoding standard.Read the article to know more about this and stay tuned for the second part ‘Using a specific character encoding in Linux’.
