Convert numbers to letters

[phub11]

Hi all,

I was wondering if there is a quick way to convert numbers to letters, such as 1=A, and 26=Z. I can do it the laborious way using 26 definitions, but it's always nice to know of any shortcuts!

Thanks

you can use the character’s Unicode value.

// A is #65 in Unicode
String.fromCharCode(64+x);

I guess that will convert it to UniCode, shift it across 64 members of the character set, and then convert it back.

Thanks!

not really, you put in a number (2) and get a letter back (B). (U+0002 is a control character)
