Week 5 Lesson 1 Homework== Homework ==1. Find the UNICODE value for this symbol: ☒

2. ASCII- Find out what it meansASCII is a table of characters for computers. It is binary code used by electronic equipment to handle text using the English alphabet, numbers, and other common symbols.

- State one specific example, like the ASCII Code for A is 65Other examples would be:

- Find out why it was (and still is) important

It helps in the process of allowing symbols represented on your keyboard to be printed on the screen. All letters, digits, punctuation symbols and many other things are given codes. These codes are standardized so they can work on different computers.

- How many BITS do ASCII symbols use?They either use 7-bits or 8-bits

3. UNICODE- Find out what it meansUnicode is a digital code for computers that lets them show text in different languages. Unicode standards are promoted by the Unicode Consortium and based on ISO standards.

- Explain why it is importantTheir goal is to replace current and previous character encoding standards with a single worldwide standard for all languages. There are almost 100,000 characters in the latest definition of Unicode.

4. Add some more English/German/Greek translations to the sample program below and make sure it works correctly in Processing.

Some changes in the code: After adding more words to be translated, I made words be shown in both German and Greek
