String.fromCharCode(n1, n2, ..., nX)

Parameters: The method takes the UTF-16 Unicode sequences as its argument. The number of arguments to this method depends upon the number of characters to be joined as a string. The range of the numbers is between 0 and 65535

Return value: The return value of this method is a string containing the characters whose UTF-16 codes were passed to the method as arguments.
