ANSI versus Unicode
After our radio show, we received a call from Rudy. He wanted to know about ANSI…
The American National Standards Institute is an organization that promotes standards. One of them was the American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) character set (letters, numbers, and symbols) that computers use. One major draw back to ASCII was you could only have 256 different characters.
