Non-Printable Character Counter
The Non-Printable Character Counter is a web-based tool designed to help users identify and count non-printable characters in a given text. This tool is particularly useful for developers, programmers, and text analysts who need to examine and manipulate text data. By utilizing this tool, users can easily detect and quantify non-printable characters, such as tabs, line breaks, and carriage returns, which can be crucial in various applications, including data processing, text formatting, and debugging.

How it Works
The Non-Printable Character Counter uses a straightforward formula to identify and count non-printable characters. It iterates over each character in the input text, checking its ASCII code to determine if it falls within the range of non-printable characters (0-31 or 127). If a non-printable character is found, it is added to the count, and its type is recorded in a table.
Example Use Cases Table
| Input Text | Non-Printable Characters Found |
|---|---|
| Hello World! | None |
| Hello World! |
1 (Line Break) |
| Hello\tWorld! | 1 (Tab) |
| Hello\nWorld! | 1 (Line Break) |
| Hello\rWorld! | 1 (Carriage Return) |
