From: Brian Candler Date: 2009-07-31T02:19:28+09:00 Subject: 1.9 inverse of String#ord Is there a simple inverse of String#ord in ruby 1.9? This is the best I can come up with: >> cp = "ł".ord => 322 >> [cp].pack("N").force_encoding("UTF-32BE").encode!("UTF-8") => "ł" Note that Integer#chr only works up to 255. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
