  • Use ord() function: ascii_value = ord(char)
    • 
  
  • Check if input is a single character: if len(char) == 1: ascii_value = ord(char)
    • 
  
  • Handle exceptions: try: ascii_value = ord(char) except TypeError: print("Input should be a character")
    •

The following are the steps to print the ASCII value of a character:

  •  Take a single character as input.  

  •  Use the `ord()` function to get the ASCII value.  

  •  Store the value in a variable.  

  •  Print the ASCII value.  

  •  Verify with uppercase, lowercase, and special characters.
