Fun Fact
ASCII originally supported only 128 characters. Hexadecimal representation became popular because it maps perfectly to byte boundaries, making it ideal for debugging, data inspection, and low-level computing tasks.
Historical Context
ASCII was standardized in the early 1960s to unify computer text encoding. Hexadecimal notation later became essential in system programming because it provides a concise representation of binary data, especially in memory addressing and machine-level operations.
