SUMMARY

The ASCII code for the hexadecimal number B7.CF consists of the ASCII representations of each character in the string "B7.CF". The characters are 'B', '7', '.', 'C', and 'F', which correspond to the decimal values 66, 55, 46, 67, and 70, respectively. Therefore, the complete ASCII code representation is 66, 55, 46, 67, 70. This solution clarifies that the question pertains to the ASCII values of the individual characters rather than their binary representation.

Homework Statement



Give the ASCII code for the hexadecimal number B7.CF (including the code for the hexadecimal point)


The Attempt at a Solution



This was one of the questions given on a problem sheet in my computer science class. I missed the exact lecture when this was taught so I don't know exactly what to do, but I have a few ideas. When getting the ASCII code does the question mean the binary representation? If so do you just concatenate the binary numbers you get? So like this 0100 0010 0011 0111 0010 1110 0100 0011 0100 0110

There are 5 standard ASCII characters in that string, so I think the answer expects 5 numbers, each number being a decimal integer in the range 0..127 and being the ASCII representation of one character.
