DC1 (control code)
In the world of computers, where text is king,
There are control codes that make the words sing.
C0 and C1, they're quite a pair,
Adding magic to text, with flair and care.
C0 codes, from 00HEX to 1FHEX,
They bring instructions, with no subtext.
Like a cursor's position, they'll tell you where,
Or starting a new line, with a touch of flair.
The default C0 set, ISO 646,
In ASCII they dwell, with a clever mix.
They're the backbone of text, the foundation strong,
Guiding computers, where they belong.
C1 codes, from 80HEX to 9FHEX,
They have their own charm, no need to vex.
Originally defined in ECMA-48,
With ISO 6429, they found their fate.
ISO/IEC 2022, a system so grand,
Specifying characters, with a wave of its hand.
It allows other C0 and C1 sets to appear,
For specialized uses, though they're quite rare.
So let's celebrate the control codes dance,
In the world of computers, where they enhance.
With C0 and C1, text comes alive,
Guiding the words, as they strive and thrive.
