ASCII, ISCII and Unicode are encoding languages with unique characteristics that define their usage.

ASCII uses a 7-bit encoding and ISCII uses an 8-bit which is an extension of ASCII while Unicode is a variable bit encoding that doesn’t fit into one 8 bit and generally uses 16-bit encoding.

I am listing the differences between ASCII below:

Unicode is standardised while ASCII as well as ISCII aren’t. ISCII are specific to Indian scripts and are less dynamic than Unicode.

Unicode represents most written languages in the world while ASCII does not.

ASCII has its equivalent within Unicode.T
