EBCDIC
Sign in to saveAlso known as Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code
Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code (EBCDIC; ) is an eight-bit character encoding used mainly on IBM mainframe and IBM midrange computer operating systems. It descended from the code used with punched cards and the corresponding six-bit binary-coded decimal code used with most of IBM's computer peripherals of the late 1950s and early 1960s. It is supported by various non-IBM platforms, such as Fujitsu-Siemens' BS2000/OSD, OS-IV, MSP, and MSP-EX, the SDS Sigma series, Unisys VS/9, Unisys MCP and ICL VME.

EBCDIC（英語：Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code，擴增二进式十进交換碼），为IBM於1963年－1964年间推出的字元编码表，根据早期打孔机式的二进化十进数（BCD，Binary Coded Decimal）排列而成。是IBM迷尔級以上電腦的標準碼。 它的缺点是：英文字母不是连续地排列，中间出现多次断续，为撰写程式的人带来了一些困难。
