Message:

Use characters to store ascii values

Posted by Hiran on August 02, 2001 at 10:33 AM

Hey, if you use a character type, you can assign the character to an ascii value (ex. char c = 65;, or char c = (char)65;).
So if you wanted to parse a String to check for alphanumeric characters, what you can do is create a character array that stores the ascii values of all the alphanumeric characters you want to check for, and use a for loop to parse your string and check against the character array.
Hope this helps! If you want a list of all the ascii values and their character equivalents, you can email me at hw_stuckie@hotmail.com, and I'll gladly send it to you.
Hiran
