Java Convert int to char

We can convert int to char in java using typecasting. To convert higher data type into lower, we need to perform typecasting. Here, the ASCII character of integer value will be stored in the char variable.

Java Convert int to char

To get the actual value in char variable, you can add '0' with int variable. Alternatively, you can use Character.forDigit() method.


Java int to char Example: Typecasting

Let's see the simple code to convert long to int in java.
