Am learning basic java and i got wrong output

Question

In the code below I am trying to convert char to int. Then I want to print the value of b, but I am getting 155 as output.

public class Maths {

    static int age = 39, age2 = 49;

    public static void main(String Args[]) {
        int a = 's';
        int b = a;
        System.out.println(a);
        System.out.println(b);
    }
}

Answer 1

Change your code to this for printing your character 's' and 115 both:

public class cn{


    static int age=39 , age2=49 ;

     public static void main (String Args[])

            {
            int a='s'; // Storing ASCII of 's' i.e. 115
            int b=a; // Coping 115 in b


            System.out.printf("%c
",a); // to print s using char literal
            System.out.println(b); // this print 115

        }
    }

In your code you are initializing int with a char that is storing ASCII of 's'(115) and then you copied that in b so the value in b is 115.
