✅ How do I convert a char to ascii and ascii back to char?

I tried this:

int b = (int)'b';
int e = (int)'e';
int c = e - b;
Console.WriteLine("char is: " + c);

int b = (int)'b';
int e = (int)'e';
int c = e - b;
Console.WriteLine("char is: " + c);

and the output is:

char is:

basically .... nothing

Because you're trying to display a difference So probably some invalid char What you should do if you're hoping for an actual letter, is add 'a' to it

You get a char with ASCII number of 3 So the character for, literally, END OF TEXT: https://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0003/index.htm

That said, it's an int variable, sonit shouldn't be converting to char

yeah i know, sorry about that. First, I had written Convert.ToChar(c) but later I changed it to just see int value but copied the exact code my bad
