Turning integer into a character

chipanpriest · **Posted:** Mon Dec 19, 2011 2:01 pm

Okay, I am trying to make a program that randomly generates a letter. Simple as that.

This is what I have

Turing:

var letter : string
var ch : int
var font := Font.New ("Comic Sans MS:30:bold")

randint (ch,65,122)
letter := intstr (ch)

Draw.Text (letter,100,100,font,7)

Now, this works, but not the way I want it to. I displays the actual number where I want to display the letter that the integer represents. like how 65 = A etc. Any help?

cheat also works in this circumstance, although it's not recommended.
