Methods like ord and chr from Python

Question

Do you know any functions that would preform the same as ord and chr from Python in Java.

Python docs on them.

• http://docs.python.org/2/library/functions.html#ord
• http://docs.python.org/2/library/functions.html#chr

I've experienced manually but seem to get so many errors. This would need to work with Strings not just char. Figured I would see if there was a function to do it pre-built.

Thanks

You can cast:

c = (char) n;

n = (int) c;
