How to insert ASCII characters in Windows?

If Windows is your operating system and you want to insert an ASCII character in a document, just press the ALT key and without releasing it, type the decimal code of the corresponding symbol.

For example, if you want to insert the symbol of the Ñ known as virguilla (~), you have to press the following key combination:

ALT + 126

ASCII code on Mac

The Windows method does not work on OS X to insert ASCII characters so we have several options.

One that I like is open the OS X Emoji and Symbols panel. For it we go to Preferences > Keyboard and there we select the following option:

Show keyboard, emoji and symbol displays in menu bar

Now we go to the top bar (the menu bar), click on the new icon that appears and select the Emojis and symbols panelThe following window will be opened:

Now we can select all kinds of symbols, copy them and view their coding information from the panel.

Anyway, here are some of the most used symbols so that you can insert them in your Mac using the key combination that corresponds to each one:

©: alt + c
ø: alt + o
Ø: alt + shift + o
±: alt + may + + +
µ: alt + m
®: alt + r
Ω: alt + z
∑: alt + x
ß: alt + b
≤: alt + <
≥: alt + >
~: alt + ñ

ASCII character table

ASCII characters there are many, but if you are looking for a table containing only the ASCII characters, you can find a table that contains only the printable ASCII charactersBelow is one that compiles all those that meet this criterion:
