JavaScript String fromCharCode() Method
The JavaScript String.fromCharCode() method is used to create a string from the given sequence of UTF-16 code units. This method returns a string, not a string object.
Syntax:
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.

JavaScript
// JavaScript to illustrate fromCharCode() method function func() { // UTF-16 codes to be converted into characters let str = String.fromCharCode(65, 66, 67); console.log(str); } func(); |
Output:
ABC
Example 2: In this example, the method fromCharCode() converts the UTF-16 code into its equivalent character and returns the string containing it as the answer. In this case, the answer is —.
JavaScript
