//characters in C++ and ASCII codes


//In C++ (and in general in any programming language) each character
//is represented as an integer value. The standard scheme is called
//ASCII. ASCII is an international standard for representing
//characters. The ASCII code of a chracter is an integer between 0 and
//255.  However, only numbers 32 to 126 have been assigned so far o
//printable characters. The remaining numbers are either unnassigned
//or are used for control characters such as tab and return.


//The following program gives you the ascii code of a character tat you type

#include <iostream.h>


int main() {

  char c; 
  char again = 'y';
  
  while (again == 'y') {
    cout << "Type in a character and I'll tell you its ASCII code: ";
    cin >> c;
    cout << "you typed char=" << c << " it's ascii code is " << (int)c << endl;
    
    cout << "again? (y/n)" << endl;
    cin >> again;
  }

  return 1;
