Understanding Binary Encoding
Binary encoding represents text using only two digits: 0 and 1. Each character is converted to an 8-bit binary number (a byte) based on its ASCII or Unicode value. For example, the letter "A" has an ASCII value of 65, which in binary is 01000001. This converter uses UTF-8 encoding, which is compatible with standard ASCII for common English characters while supporting international characters.
Frequently Asked Questions
What format should binary input be in?

Does this support special characters?
Yes, the converter supports UTF-8 encoding, which includes special characters, emojis, and international alphabets.
