Octal to text in Java

Question

I have a integer:

int octalValue = 103

I want to convert this to text in Java. How can I do this? The expected output would be 'C'.

Answer 1

Octal literals need to be prefixed with a 0:

int octalValue = 0103; //89

You can then convert it to the corresponding ASCII code:

char c = (char) octalValue; //C
