A
spaces, special characters, 0-9, A-Z, a-z
💡 Explanation:
Standard ASCII collating sequence orders characters by their ASCII values: space (32) comes first, then special characters (33-47), then digits 0-9 (48-57), then uppercase A-Z (65-90), then lowercase a-z (97-122). This ordering is fundamental to character comparison in computing.
