What is ASCII?

ASCII is a character encoding standard for electronic communication. ASCII codes represent text in computers, telecommunications equipment, and other devices. Most modern character-encoding schemes are based on ASCII, although they support many additional characters.

What is Octal?

Octal is a number system that uses eight digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. It is also known as base 8 numbering system since it is based on 8 following symbols: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7.

How to convert ASCII to Octal?

To convert ASCII to Octal, we need to convert each character to it's ASCII value, then convert that ASCII value to Octal.

Example

Let's convert the word "Hello" to Octal.

First, we need to convert each character to it's ASCII value.

Character	ASCII Value
H	72
e	101
l	108
l	108
o	111

Now, we need to convert each ASCII value to Octal.

ASCII Value	Octal Value
72	110
101	145
108	154
108	154
111	157

Finally, we need to combine all the Octal values together to get the final Octal value. In this case, the final Octal value is 110 145 154 154 157. This is the Octal representation of the word "Hello".
