Convert a Numeric Value into associated Character

[Steve Dyke]

I need to take an encripted string of numbers and change it into readible string. This is my code which will return the correct values for each character but I don't know how to get the character associated with each value. Example 48 = 0, 54 = 5, 106 = j

public String getPassWord() {
int lopw = this.password.trim().length();
String uepw = "";
String decriptedletter = "";
for (int i=1; i<lopw; i++) {
//CHR((Val(cLetter)-5)/2) my foxpro code equiv
decriptedletter = this.password.substring(i-1,i+2);
int sValue = Integer.parseInt(decriptedletter);
uepw = uepw + String.valueOf((sValue-5)/2)+",";

i = i + 2;

}

All you need to do is cast the numeric value to type char.

class CharMachine {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    int i48 = 48;
    int i54 = 54;
    int i106 = 106;
    System.out.println((char)i48 + ", " + (char)i54 + ", " + (char)i106);
  }
}

Thanks. That works great.
