C# AscW Example | AscW | Source Code

Purpose: – Illustrates the C# Syntax for AscW.

using System;
 
public class clsAscW
{
 
    public void Main()
    {
 
 
        //****************************************************************************************
        // Purpose: Returns an Integer value representing the character code corresponding to
        // a character - if string is used only first character is evaluated.
        //
        // Syntax: 	AscW(char) or AscW(string)
        //
        //
        //****************************************************************************************
 
        Console.WriteLine("Example #1: 	AscW(string)");
 
 
        Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToInt32("This is my string"[0])); // Returns 84
 
 
        //write blank line to make output easier to read
        Console.WriteLine();
 
 
 
        //Prevent console from closing before you press enter
        Console.ReadLine();
 
    }
 
 
}
