asciihexbin.py prints a table of hex, binary, unicode values for 0 to 256.
#The first 127 characters are also the ascii character set
# uses this built-in module to convert to bin and hex
# This program is described in Appendix 6 (pg. 506) of PCfB
The code:¶

def int2bin(n, count=8):
    """returns the binary of integer n, using count number of digits"""
    return "".join([str((n >> y) & 1) for y in range(count-1, -1, -1)])

ValuesToPrint = 256
for x in range(ValuesToPrint):
  # split parameters of the % operator across lines
    print ("%03d\t%8s\t%s\t%s" % (
    x,              # the decimal value
    int2bin(x),     # binary representation
    hex(x).upper(), # hexadecimal value
    chr(x)          # unicode character
