Chapter 6.7, Problem 3QLQ
Explanation of Solution
ASCII characters:
In a computer system, characters can be represented using standard numeric codes. The most commonly used standard is referred as “American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII)”.
- ASCII is primarily based on the English alphabet for character encoding.
- It uses 128 unique characters; and seven bits to represent each character in the set. Check bit is used as the eighth bit to ensure proper data transmission.
- Extended ASCII character version includes the eighth bit and allows 256 unique characters, which includes some additional symbols and some accented letters.
- ASCII has a finite number of characters; so it lists them all and assigns binary string value to each one of them.
- However, some problems need to be addressed, such as, in English language, there are 26 letters, and ASCII considers uppercase, lowercase letters separately, and assigns a value for each of the 52 characters.
- ASCII character set as well as Unicode character set treats uppercase and lowercase letters distinctly.
Binary code:
The digital data can be symbolized, stored and communicated as a set of binary bits. This set is referred as binary code.
- The letters, special characters or digits are represented using the binary digits “0” and “1” in a computer device or other electronic devices...

Create a program that will convert an alphabet in to its equivalent number(based on its order in the alphabet), and vice versa. The program will disallow punctuational characters or other symbols and lowercase letters as input.( C Language)
A stopwatch uses six digits to display hours, minutes and seconds. The stopwatch is stopped at
02 : 16 : 58
Write the decimal integers that are currently stored for the Hours, Minutes and Seconds as unsigned binary numbers, using exactly 8 bits.
Name the problem that might occur in some programming languages if an attempt was made to store the Minutes value as an unsigned binary number using exactly 4 bits.

- please code in python Pascal's triangle is a triangle of numbers that is computed as follows. The first row contains a 1. Each row after that begins and ends with a 1, and every other number is the sum of the two numbers above it. The first six rows of Pascal's triangle are shown in the image below. Write a script to compute and print the nth row of Pascal's triangle. Do not spend time trying to print the entire triangle in the format above (it is for illustrative purposes only). The input will be the row number as an integer starting with row 1 as the first row. ** Hint: Think about the type of objects you need to solve the problem. What are you iterating over?

- Using Python, write a program that converts a binary (base 2) number to decimal (base 10). Your program should begin by reading the binary number from the user as a string. Then it should compute the equivalent decimal number by processing each digit in the binary number. Finally, your program should display the equivalent decimal number with an appropriate message.arrow_forward2. Characters in Strings A large part of the text processing done by computers involves reading user input and figuring out what it means. We'll do something like that today: given a string supplied by a user, we report (1) the total length of the string, (2) how many alphabetic characters, (3) how many numeric characters, (4) how many vowels (a, e, i, o, u) were in that string, and (5) how many of the alphabetics were upper-case. For example, if a user input this line: the program would say: String length: 30 James Bond, 007, works for MI6 Alphabetics: 19, upper-case: 4 Numerics: 4 Vowels: 6 You will need to use a new (to us) function to read the user input. You have been using cin but this won't work for your needs in this program. Instead, use getline (cin,s) where s is a string variable. That string will contain everything the user typed up to but not including the Enter the user typed to end the line.
