ord() function

[compsystems]

Hello, I am coding a prg that converts a number between 0 and 9 to a subscript character, but it seems that the ORD command only operates between 0 and 255 =(

Code : Tout sélectionner

def toSubscript(n):
    local subscriptStr
    DispG
    if ord(string(n))>=48 and ord(string(n))<=57:
       subscriptStr :=  char(n+8272) # char(n+48)
       return subscriptStr, ord(subscriptStr), asc(subscriptStr)
    else: 
        return "error"

char(8320) >"₀"
ord("₀") > 8320

toSubscript(n)
n
0 > "₀"
1 > "₁"
2 > "₂"
3 > "₃"
... ₄₅₆₇₈₉

Yes, it's UTF8 encoding.

ord("₀") returns -30 and not 8320

Xcas parser uses UTF8 encoding, you will never get 16 bits integer. There are additional restrictions in ord, UTF8 is indeed not supported.
