ASCII ( American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a standardized one byte representation for characters.

For example, character 'a' has an ascii representation of 0x61.

'c' has a ascii representation of 0x63.

Converting the given hex representations to their respective characters using standard ascii tables, we get:

0x54 - T

0x68 - h

0x65 0x63 - e c

0x61 - a

0x6b - k

0x65 0x69 - e i

0x69 - i

0x65 - e

0x2e - .
