ASCII

Description

ASCII is a 7-bit encoding standard which allows the representation of text using the integers 0-127. Using the below integer array, convert the numbers to their corresponding ASCII characters to obtain a flag. [99, 114, 121, 112, 116, 111, 123, 65, 83, 67, 73, 73, 95, 112, 114, 49, 110, 116, 52, 98, 108, 51, 125] 💡 In Python, the chr() function can be used to convert an ASCII ordinal number to a character (the ord() function does the opposite).

Hit the Right Chord

Using the chr() Python function, we can code up a script to take in these values and output the corresponding ASCII to get the flag

NUMBERS = [99, 114, 121, 112, 116, 111, 123, 65, 83, 67, 73, 73, 95, 112, 114, 49, 110, 116, 52, 98, 108, 51, 125]

flag = ""

# Iterate over each number
for num in NUMBERS:
    # Convert to ASCII and append to the string
    flag += chr(num)

print(flag)
