There are several codes. One of the older ones is the American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII). It used a 7-bit code which permitted 128 characters. When that number was found to be inadequate the American Nation Standards Institute (ANSI) introduced an 8-bit version. Computers use ANSI code pages which are whole sets of ANSI codes. Then there are other systems like UNICODE.
