| Synopsis
| Converts an integer between 1 and 255 to its ascii ordinal
character.
The null character (octal 000) cannot be represented.
This function allows an easy way to generate non-printable characters,
or special (accentuated) characters.
This is useful when encoding/decoding symbols for dynamic programming.
It is also useful in general for the analysis of raw input. |
