Which one of the following is the full form of ASCII code which is generally used in the computer system ?

ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. It is a character encoding standard for electronic communication, representing text in computers and other devices. Originally based on the English alphabet, ASCII encodes 128 specified characters into seven-bit integers. These include numbers 0-9, lowercase letters a-z, uppercase letters A-Z, and basic punctuation symbols. It was first published in 1963 by the American Standards Association (now known as ANSI). While modern systems often use Unicode (like UTF-8) to support global languages, ASCII remains the foundational subset for most character sets used today. Options B, C, and D are incorrect variations of the name.
