how to transform integer to char..

how to transform integer to char ?
int x=3;
char y;

i know that in order to do the opposite thing
i need to

Code:

int x;
char y='3';

x=y-'0';

a 'char' is an unsigned /or/ signed integer of at least 8 bits,
an 'int' is a signed integer of at least 16 bits (to be checked) so you can cast from one to the other with the expected loss from int to char...

Well, if the opposite is to subtract, then perhaps what you should do is to add. Of course, the assumption is that the integer is only one digit.

i can do casting??

Code:

int x=3;
char y;
y=(char)x;

Yes, e.g.,

Code:

int x = 3;
char y;
y = (char)(x + '0');

You might want to assert(x >= 0 && x <= 9) since this is only supposed to work with x being in that range.

i can do casting??

Yes, casts work for all elementary types (with possible side effects).

Maybe you should take a look at the itoa and atoi functions

atoi does not apply here and itoa is non-standard (but then there's the printf-family of functions).
