Printing ascii characters

[slipper]

I understabd at the beginning if the ascii character set there are certain symbols ie hearts, smilies and so on.

What I need to know is how to access them to print.


Something like :
System.out.print("This is a smiling face " + asciiValue1);

Can this be done?

Any help welcome

I have found out that it is the uncode character setthat I will need to use.
Specifically I am trying to print out a heart, club, dimaond and spade symbols.

Can anybody help?

public void printSymbols(){
    for(int i = 1; i <= 6; ++i){
      char c = (char) i; 
        System.out.println(c);
   }
