Frequently Asked Questions
How do I look up a character's code?
Type or paste a character and the tool shows its decimal, hexadecimal, binary and octal values along with its HTML entity. This is useful for debugging encoding issues and writing escape sequences.
What is the difference between ASCII and Unicode?
ASCII is a 128-character set covering basic English letters, digits and symbols. Unicode is a far larger standard that includes virtually every character and emoji from every writing system, with ASCII as its first 128 code points.
What is a code point?
A code point is the unique number assigned to a character in Unicode, usually written as U+ followed by hex digits (for example U+0041 is the letter A). The tool shows this for any character you enter.
Can I get the HTML entity for a character?
Yes. For each character the tool provides the numeric HTML entity (and a named one where it exists), which you can paste directly into HTML to display the character reliably.
