Get Ascii value for a Char

[Yakubu Lawan]

Please, I can't seem to find any function to get the ascii value of a Character e.g. 'A' is 65...
and also a function to convert decimal to hexadecimal.
Thanks.

There might be a function but I am not sure. You can just cast your character to an int though, as in...
System.out.println("A is : " + (int)'A');

For characters in the ASCII range 0 - 127, the value in a Unicode char is the same as ASCII. You can cast it to a byte or int.
For a function to format an int as a hexidecimal or other base string, look at the Integer class static methods.
String s = Integer.toHexString( myint )
