Introducton I adapted this information from a web site and I have made it available

locally.
ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. Below is the
ASCII character table, including descriptions of the first 32 characters. ASCII was
originally designed for use with teletypes, and so the descriptions are somewhat
obscure and their use is frequently not as intended.

Java actually uses Unicode, which includes ASCII and other characters from
languages around the world.

ASCII Table
Dec = Decimal Value
Char = Character

'5' has the int value 53


if we write '5'-'0' it evaluates to 53-48, or the int 5
if we write char c = 'B'+32; then c stores 'b'
