Converting a char to ASCII

Question

I have tried lots of solutions to convert a char to Ascii  And all of them have got a problem   One solution was   char A  int ValeurASCII   static cast lt int gt  A     But VS mentions that static cast is an invalid type conversion     PS  my A is always one of the special chars  and not numbers

A char is an integral type  When you write  char ch    A     you re setting the value of ch to whatever number your compiler uses to represent the character  A   That s usually the ASCII code for  A  these days  but that s not required  You re almost certainly using a system that uses ASCII   Like any numeric type  you can initialize it with an ordinary number   char ch   13    If you want do do arithmetic on a char value  just do it  ch   ch   1  etc   However  in order to display the value you have to get around the assumption in the iostreams library that you want to display char values as characters rather than numbers  There are a couple of ways to do that   std  cout  lt  lt   ch  lt  lt    n   std  cout  lt  lt  int ch   lt  lt    n
