[SOLVED] Ascii code to string

[CM630]

Oddly, I cannot find the answer.
I need to convert an ASCII code to a string.
In other words, I need to convert the number $48 to the string 'H'. How?

or

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. str := #$48;

Thanks, this seems to work:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. String(#$48)

or

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. String(char($48))

The casts are not necessary. That puts people on the wrong foot imho.

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. {$mode objfpc}
2. begin
3.   writeln(#$48);// this is already a string in hex notation: H.
4. end.

[CM630]

Indeed. Both line result in H.

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
2. var
3.   i : byte = $48;
4. begin
5.   ShowMessage (String(char(i)));
6.   ShowMessage (char(i));  
7. end;
