char(x, [, kind]): Integer to Character¶

Integer to character conversion.

Declaration¶

retval = char(x)
character function char(x)

x: the input value of integer type.

kind: an optional input value of type integer constant expression for initialization. This indicates the kind parameter of the result.

The return value is of type character of length 1.

The return value is of kind kind if optional input value is passed, otherwise the kind is default kind.

char(x) returns the character represented by the ASCII character set at x position.

If x is outside the ASCII character set integer value, i.e., if x is not represented in the ASCII character set, the return value is undefined.

It is a runtime builtin function.

Supported argument type is integer.
