In Java programming, every character has its own ASCII value (ASCII value is nothing but an integer). When we assign a character to variable, instead of storing the character itself, the ASCII value of that character will be stored. For example, ASCII value for the A is 65. In this article we will show you, How to write a Java Program to print ASCII Value of a Character with example.
TIP: Please refer ASCII Table article to understand the list of ASCII Character and their decimal, Hexadecimal and Octal numbers.
Java Program to print ASCII Value of a Character Example
In this program, user is asked to enter any character. Next, this program will display the ASCII value of that particular character.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 |
// Java Program to print ASCII Value of a Character import java.util.Scanner; public class ASCIIofCharacter { private static Scanner sc; public static void main(String[] args) { char ch; sc = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.print(" Please Enter any Character : "); ch = sc.next().charAt(0); //Assigning the Character to Integer value int num1 = ch; // You can also Type cast the Character Value to convert it into Integer value int num2 = (int)ch; System.out.println("\n The ASCII value of a given character " + ch + " = " + num1); System.out.println("\n The ASCII value of a given character " + ch + " = " + num2); // Type casting directly inside the system.out.println System.out.println("\n The ASCII value of a given character " + ch + " = " + (int)ch); } } |
OUTPUT
This time we are inserting word. though it it is a word, this program will accept the first character only because of sc.next().charAt(0). This will read character at position at index position 0.
