C++ - Reading Char Numbers.

deletedforumuser · 06-25-2008

If your making an ASCII game or if you want to print some ASCII chars on the screen...

You can just write this code to show all the ASCII and their numbers.

Code:

#include <iostream>


int main()
{
   using namespace std;

  
   for (int i = 1; i < 255; i++)
   {
	   cout << (char) i  << " Char number: "<< i <<endl;

   }

   cin.get();

   return 0;

}

This may help you if you need the ASCII Chars.
Then you can just write this to add them.

Example:

Code:

char WriteHere = 1;
cout <<WriteHere;

This will print WriteHere (ASCII = 1).

Printing every ASCII character does not create the most pleasing results.
Not when the internal beeper joins the orchestra, at least.

Haha...It just shows people how to print a char.

It also help them to learn more about loops.

I really think books explain the concept better, you know?

or... searching ASCII Table in Google.

Another tip: Rather than using strange numbers to stand in for characters, use the actual characters themselves, like 'a', 'b', 'z', 'A', 'B' and 'Z'. This will work for ASCII or other character sets, and it is easier to read, too.
