The processor cannot differentiate between A & B thats where ASCII comes in. All letters and symbols have an ASCII value assigned to it and thats how the processor processes it. When i type the keyboard, the Ascii value is sent to the processor and then converted to the character so that it can be displayed on the screen. I think it stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange.
