Hi Folks

  
main(doc,op)  
{  
    var s = "test";  
    println(s[2]);  
}

This example expression returns 115 instead of "s"... what's wrong here?

Thank you very much!

Take care,
Janos

Isn't a coder out there that knows the answer? I feel that the solution is quite simply...
I only need the char of a string at a given position. Well, it seemed to me that this had worked with the array-parenthesis - but the code-snippet above prints only 115 instead of the char "s" to the console
is 115 probably an ascii-code or something like that?

Hmm, well, I just saw that the question is quite simply

How can I convert a 16 bit unicode char to a string and vice versa?

I haven't found something in the SDK yet So I'm looking forward to every hint...

Best regards from Switzerland

To convert a character code to a string you have to insert it into a dummy string:

    
    
    var s = "?";  
    s[0] = 115;  
    println(s);
