What is ASCII vs. Binary File Types Explained about?

- ASCII files store text as ASCII character codes, which are represented as binary numbers (1s and 0s), so ASCII files are considered a type of binary file. - Binary files can store any bit pattern across bytes, while ASCII files restrict each byte to an ASCII character code. - Editing binary files directly at the bit level is difficult, but hex editors allow editing files by specifying hexadecimal byte values rather than characters.
