ASCII String <-> Decimal/Hexadecimal/Binary Converter
This is one of the very few useful programmer utilities available to easily convert ASCII characters to and from decimal, hexadecimal, and binary. While the convert from numerical format to ASCII is slightly clunky, it is functional after hitting 'Add' to enter a new numeric value, and still beats all the "one value at a time" programs.
Sadly, there are very few reviews, and some of them are unjustly negative. Please do not leave a negative review if you are not sure what the initialism "ASCII" means, or why you might want a converter for it. (It stands for "American Standard Code for Information Interchange" - more can be found on Wikipedia if you are interested!) ASCII representation of characters is an older method of representing and storing readable text, communication control characters, and simple formatting of text. It predates Unicode by several decades, and is still in use today when text in English (and a few other languages) is all that needs to be stored.
If you do understand and find this tool useful, or do not need to do or mind doing a manual look-up into a table to convert strings (strings are one of the names for a continuous list of generally human-readable characters, such as this text you are reading now, stored in a way that allows efficient and standardized processing on computer systems), then please do not rate this program at all.
