$CHAR

Draft MDC Standard

7.1.5.2 $Char

$C[HAR] ( L intexpr )

This form returns a string whose length is the number of argument expressions which have non-negative values. Each intexpr in the closed interval [0,127] maps into the ASCII character whose code is the value of intexpr; this mapping is order-preserving. Each negative-valued intexpr maps into no character in the value of $Char. Each intexpr greater than 127 maps into a character in a manner defined by the current charset of the process.
