You know how people make designs using lines, letters and dashes through the keyboard? Like flowers, flags, and pictures and stuff...

Does anyone know of are have one of a Camaro cause that would be pretty cool.

 

You mean ASCII art?

 

umm sure??? i have no idea what to call it but sounds good. you make picutures using letter, dashes, and the keys on the keyboard

 

Yeah, that's ASCII art. ASCII = how the computer interprets the characters on the screen- "A" is 65, "B" is 66, "a" is 97, "b" is 98...

Before the days of Windows and the internet, there was ASCII art and ANSI art ... oops, I feel old.

 

No need... 20 here, and I remember doing it. Still do, shoot!

FYI -

ASCII = American Standard Code for Information Interchange

Just like Tom said - computers only understand numbers. Actually, only 0 and 1 (on and off).

That's right... everything you're typing out, seeing, and playing on your computer boils down to 'on' and 'off'.

 

now tha you explain it i know what you mean but what im talking about is this.....

I have seen people use the keyboard and draw pictures where i drew YO really big. I have seen boquets of flowers, funny faces and stuff like that drawn like this

 

If this isn't the best ASCII Camaro you've ever seen...

edit: Alright how about a picture of what it looks like on the screen.

 

wow not how it was supposed to come out it looked right on the screen until i hit the submit button

 

Here it is...

 

Also, when you add a really tall ASCII spoiler, your computer goes 200MHz faster.
