XL Fortran for AIX 8.1

Language Reference


Appendix B. ASCII and EBCDIC Character Sets

XL Fortran uses the ASCII character set as its collating sequence.

This table lists the standard ASCII characters in numerical order with the corresponding decimal and hexadecimal values. For convenience in working with programs that use EBCDIC character values, the corresponding information for EBCDIC characters is also included. The table indicates the control characters with "Ctrl-" notation. For example, the horizontal tab (HT) appears as "Ctrl-I", which you enter by simultaneously pressing the Ctrl key and I key.
