[SOLVED] get character using ASCII and make one string, using C

Micro Lover · Jul 24, 2011

hi

I have some ASCII values and some characters, now i want to get the character with given ASCII value and make a one string,

here is simple Pseudo-code

int W=65; X=67
string Y = "B" ; Z = "D"
string Result = ""

Result = chr(W) & Y & chr(X) & Z

--------------
Output
---------

Result = "ABCD"

i need help for C language, for Keil

The ascii value is already a character, for example the following are exactly the same

Code:

char my_array[4];

my_array[0]=65;
is the same as my_array[0]='A';

So what you want can simply be done

Code C - [expand]

char my_array[5];
int W=65;
int X=67;
char Y = 'B';  // note the single quotes
char Z = 'D';
 
my_array[0]= (char)W; // char is only used to typecast the 16bit integer to a 8bit character, not to convert a number to a letter, if W and X are declared as char then no typecasting is needed
my_array[1]=Y;
my_array[2]=(char)X; // if you don't use the typecasting you will get warnings from the compiler, the result will still be correct
my_array[3]=Z;
my_array[4]=0; // null terminated
