C++ Program to display the ASCII value of given character [DEVCPP/GCC]

ASCII CODE

ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. Computers can only understand binary numbers, so an ASCII code is the numerical representation of a character.

//Program to display the ASCII value of given character

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
int num;
char ch;

cout<<"ENTER CHARACTER: ";
cin>>ch;

num = (int) ch; //Type Casting

cout<<"ASCII VALUE OF "<<ch<<" IS "<<num;
return 0;
}
