Here's what the shell prompt looks like via the OMVS panel inside the ISPF 3270 interface. There's some EBCDIC code page conversion issue in the files in the root directory. https://t.co/DOIDGYjUMq
@TheEnbyperor Reminds me of EBCDIC code page 1093, whose blatantly sole purpose is to make "IBMr" show up as an IBM logo: https://t.co/teTI1ZoYWo
I started the code. I love EBCDIC https://t.co/2VhzMx7XCh

Real programmers don't use PASCAL A fun read from 80's. [https://t.co/zsZ1b5Azf8](https://t.co/zsZ1b5Azf8) Here's a quote, >A Real Programmer might or might not know his wife's name. He does, however, know he entire ASCII (or EBCDIC) code table.
@herrold I’d hate to see it come to some abnormal end.
today i was having issues with a mainframe application getting data from Windows not recognizing square brackets; turned out the part translating the input and the one actually using it use two EBCDIC code pages which are identical except for 6 code points. fun times...
* chuckle * Early in my coding career, I debugged COBOL code from EBCDIC code dumps of ML code, without opcode annotation, and only a green card at hand https://t.co/eDWqgvvqU0
@Fubaroque @simonhania @floorter @INGBelgie Of de goede code pages laden. IBM mainframe met EBCDIC en printer met ASCII zijn prima te mappen.
Wow, I haven't thought about EBCDIC since my time with an IBM 370 Mainframe in the late 80's. Wikipedia covers the basics (,EBCDIC,) and as it was an 8 bit coding system, EBCDIC could potentially store 256 different characters. ASCII was, at the time, a 7 bit coding system and therefore could only store 128 different characters. One oddity I remember is that numbers could be stored as 2x 4 bit characters inside one byte, and therefore could be read from a core dump with great ease. However, as the 370 hardware was able to automatically cope with this format, there was no downside on efficiency using this for your calculations and may have been more efficient when printing. Maybe no surprise that the machines were mainly used for business (i.e. money) type computations rather than scientific work.
Advantage of EBCDIC is it is a eight bit characteristics language instead of six bit characteristics language which was used for punch cards.EBDIC can do some function which the old six bit system can not perform.
Because an 8 bit number goes from 0 to 255, which is 256 numbers. Each number can represent a character (printing or non-printing). It’s the same with ASCII - there are the same 256 codes, 0–255, they’re just used to represent different characters.
Others have stated what EBCDIC is. While ASCII has consecutive codes seeming more logical, EBCDIC has strange gaps. This is because on punched cards particular holes did not work very well (torn cards). So these codes were skipped. EBCDIC is thus an example of a skewomorphic technology constrained by a now irrelevant technology. Computing is full of such examples. But it is difficult to change sometimes for good reasons, but sometimes just because people won’t admit the deficiencies and even argue for them. The imperial system of measurement comes to mind. A lot of time and expense is spent on conversion, or translating from one thing to another. Computing is also full of such examples. Companies can considerably benefit if they are in control of the format.
For the whole world they're the same.. that is the reason they're used. Here are some links what a simple Google search will yield and are valid: ASCII character codes and html, octal, hex and decimal chart conversion Binary-coded decimal, Gray code, ASCII and EBCDIC compared, (Nobody usually uses EBCDIC..)
Looks like you have added an extra D in it; the real code is: EBCDIC - Wikipedia [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBCDIC ] It features on most IBM mainframe and mid range machines (iSeries running iOS) along with plug compatible clones of IBM mainframe machines, and some other proprietary machines by Unisys, Burroughs, ICL and the like. It was possible to IPL (Initial Program Load - read as boot) IBM mainframes to use ASCII code pages but only a few shops actually did it.
You can easily find ,EBCDIC, and ,ASCII, charts with a quick web search. “Binary” isn’t an encoding system. Binary is a way of representing numbers in base 2. If you want to show the binary representation of characters, you first have to map the characters to numbers with some encoding system (such as EBCDIC or ASCII) and then show the binary representation of those encoded values. For example, if I had an encoding that assigned ,A=1, B=2, C=3, D=4, \dots Z=26,, then the binary representation would be ,A=1_2, B=10_2, C=11_2, D=100_2, \dots Z=11010_2,. Good luck on your homework.
