The String charCodeAt() method
Find out all about the JavaScript charCodeAt() method of a string
Return the character code at the index i. Similar to charAt(), except it returns the Unicode 16-bit integer representing the character:
'Flavio'.charCodeAt(0) //70
'Flavio'.charCodeAt(1) //108
'Flavio'.charCodeAt(2) //97
Calling toString() after that will return the hexadecimal number, which you can lookup in Unicode tables like this.
