ASCII table

Prints out byte values in all possible formats :
-as raw binary values
- as ASCII - encoded decimal, hex, octal, and binary values

For more on ASCII, see http ://www.asciitable.com and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII

The circuit : No external hardware needed.

	void setup() {
	//Initialize serial and wait for port to open:
	Serial.begin(500000);
	while (!Serial) {
		; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for native USB port only
	}

	// prints title with ending line break
	Serial.println("ASCII Table ~ Character Map");
}

// first visible ASCIIcharacter '!' is number 33:
int thisByte = 33;
// you can also write ASCII characters in single quotes.
// for example, '!' is the same as 33, so you could also use this:
// int thisByte = '!';

void loop() {
	// prints value unaltered, i.e. the raw binary version of the byte.
	// The Serial Monitor interprets all bytes as ASCII, so 33, the first number,
	// will show up as '!'
	Serial.write(thisByte);

	Serial.print(", dec: ");
	// prints value as string as an ASCII-encoded decimal (base 10).
	// Decimal is the default format for Serial.print() and Serial.println(),
	// so no modifier is needed:
	Serial.print(thisByte);
	// But you can declare the modifier for decimal if you want to.
	// this also works if you uncomment it:

	// Serial.print(thisByte, DEC);


	Serial.print(", hex: ");
	// prints value as string in hexadecimal (base 16):
	Serial.print(thisByte, HEX);

	Serial.print(", oct: ");
	// prints value as string in octal (base 8);
	Serial.print(thisByte, OCT);

	Serial.print(", bin: ");
	// prints value as string in binary (base 2) also prints ending line break:
	Serial.println(thisByte, BIN);

	// if printed last visible character '~' or 126, stop:
	if (thisByte == 126) {    // you could also use if (thisByte == '~') {
	  // This loop loops forever and does nothing
		while (true) {
			continue;
		}
	}
	// go on to the next character
	thisByte++;
