[!TLDR]

The decimal digits 0–9 have the 7-bit ASCII codes 0110000 to 0111001, i.e. the fixed zone bits 011 followed by the 4-bit value of the digit.

ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a 7-bit alphanumeric code. The numeric characters '0' to '9' share the common upper (zone) bits 011, and the lower four bits hold the BCD value of the digit.
