The ASCII character set (and, more generally, ISO 646) contains exactly 94 graphic non- whitespace characters, which form a contiguous range of code points. These codes ( 0x21–0x7E, as corresponding high bit set bytes 0xA1–0xFE) also used in various multi-byte encoding schemes for languages of East Asia, such as ISO 2022, EUC and GB 2312. For this reason, code pages of 94² and even 94³ code points were common in East Asia in 1980s–1990s.
