Seven-bit Binary Codes
Examples of seven-bit binary codes are:
- ASCII - The ubiquitous ASCII code was originally defined as a seven-bit character set. The ASCII article provides a detailed set of equivalent standards, and variants. In addition, there are various extensions of ASCII to eight-bits (see Eight-bit binary codes)

Famous quotes containing the word codes:
“... until both employers’ and workers’ groups assume responsibility for chastising their own recalcitrant children, they can vainly bay the moon about “ignorant” and “unfair” public criticism. Moreover, their failure to impose voluntarily upon their own groups codes of decency and honor will result in more and more necessity for government control.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
