In ASCII encoding, each character is encoded in 8 bits. Determine the information volume of the message in this encoding. (32 characters) is the correct answer 256 bits?

If each character is encoded with 8 bits, then 2 ^ 8 = 256 different characters can be encoded with this code.

This is due to the fact that a binary code (a code consisting of 0 and 1) of this length can represent 256 different codes from 00000000 to 11111111.

If each letter of the word is represented by 8 bits, then to store 32 such letters you need

32 * 8 = 256 bits = 32 bytes (1 byte = 8 bits).
