Caret notation

Caret notation is a notation for control characters in ASCII. The notation assigns ^A to control-code 1, sequentially through the alphabet to ^Z assigned to control-code 26. For the control-codes outside of the range 1–26, the notation extends to the adjacent, non-alphabetic ASCII characters; for example ^@ is used for control-code 0.
