Answer / guru
unicode is the universal code. In language like java the
applications can be developed in diff types of OS and
deployed in diff OS because of its Portability feature.
Since it is used in various types of OS across the world,
the type of data (eng,latin etc) needs to be stored, in
such situation java uses Unicode instead of ASCII code to
accept the data of different types and used across the world
