Binary Encoder / Decoder
Convert text to binary (8-bit groups) and decode binary back to text
Binary encoding represents each character as its 8-bit ASCII code (for standard characters). For example, the letter 'A' has ASCII value 65, which in binary is 01000001. Binary is the fundamental language of computers — all data including text, images, and programs is ultimately stored and processed as sequences of 0s and 1s. Understanding binary helps programmers reason about bit manipulation, network protocols, and low-level data formats.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Each character is converted to its 8-bit binary representation (e.g. "A" → 01000001). Groups are separated by spaces.
