how to know the unicode coding for a specific char

Hi all.
how can I get the unicode coding for a specific char.
something like (for example):
A = \u2302
c = \u233a
is there an algorithm to apply here ?

The unicode is in hex, so you just need to convert your char to hex, then write out "\u####". You could do this:

"\u"+Integer.toHexString((int)mychar);

(this might actually require some padding 0's on the left, but you get the idea).

Windows only: run the "charmap" utility.

(BTW: what are you trying to achieve here - code point values don't change so isn't this a little unecessary? Sorry if that sounds like a criticism - I'm just curious)
