The first 128 chars are ASCII or Control Chars and Basic Latin, which is the most important part of the Unicode.

Among the first 128, the first 32 are control chars, notably:

10, 0x000A is New Line (NL) \n

13, 0x000D is Carriage Return (CR) \r

Among the first 128, the next 96 are basic latin, notably:

32, 0x0020 is space, . One of the most important charcodes.

48, 0x0030 is 0, between space and zero are: !"#$%&'()*+,-./

65, 0x0041 is A, before A are: :;<=>?@

97, 0x0061 is a, after Z and before a are: `[]^_``, the diff between captital and lowercase letter are 32 or 0x20

after lowercases are {|}~
