ASCII Characters

How do i display the ASCII code for a character?

[parksie]

Try:

char *pcMyString = "Hello World";
char *p = pcMyString;

while(*(p++)) {
cout << (int)(*p) << endl;
}

If you cast a char to an int, it works fine. Note that it displays a 0 as the last character.

For some reason when i use (int) it returns

-6

every time.

That's funny - it works on mine :(.
Mine outputs:

101
108
108
111
32
87
111
114
108
100
0

Unnkkgghhh...

Sorry - I wasn't thinking straight:

char *pcMyString = "Hello World";
char *p = pcMyString;

while(*p) {
cout << *p << " : " << (int)(*p) << endl;
p++;
}
