Explanation

Notepad stores text in ASCII code (American Standard Code for Information Interchange), which uses 7 or 8 bits to represent characters. Each character typed is saved as its corresponding ASCII value. This is why Notepad can only handle plain text without formatting - it stores raw character codes, not binary, machine language, or assembly representations.
