A function which returns a string of length 1 containing the ASCII character specified by the least significant byte of the numeric argument.
A$=CHR$(72) B$=CHR$(12) C$=CHR$(A/200)
CHR$ generates an ASCII character (symbol, letter, number character, control character, etc) from the number given. The number specifies the position of the generated character in the ASCII table. For example:
char$=CHR$(65)
will set char$ equal to the character 'A'. You can use CHR$ to send a special character to the terminal or printer. (Generally, VDU is better for sending characters to the screen). For example,
CHR$(7)
will generate the ASCII character ^G.
CHR$ is the complement of ASC.
Syntax
<s-var>=CHR$(<numeric>)
