Acronym for Extended Binary Coded ASCII Code, an early computer character encoding system used primarily on IBM mainframe computers.
Acronym: EBCASC from 'Extended Binary Coded ASCII Code.' Developed by IBM as an extension of ASCII to represent more characters in computing systems.
EBCASC is why different computers sometimes can't understand each other's files — IBM mainframes spoke this encoding language while personal computers spoke ASCII, creating computer Tower of Babel situations.
