The String charCodeAt() method

New Course Coming Soon:

Get Really Good at Git

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.

Are you intimidated by Git? Can’t figure out merge vs rebase? Are you afraid of screwing up something any time you have to do something in Git?

Git is something we all need to use, but few of us really master it. I created this course to improve your Git (and GitHub) knowledge at a radical level. A course that helps you feel less frustrated with Git. Launching Summer 2024. Join the waiting list!
