chr

Description

Converts a numeric Unicode code point into its corresponding string character.

Syntax

Like many functions in DataPrime, chr supports two notations, function and method. These interchangeable forms allow flexibility in how you structure expressions.

Function notation

chr(value: number): string

Method notation

(value: number).chr(): string

Arguments

Name	Type	Required	Description
value	number	true	The Unicode code point to convert into a character

Example

Convert a numeric code point into a Unicode character

Using chr, the numeric value can be rendered as its corresponding Unicode symbol. Consider the following document:

Example data

{
    "emoji_numeric_value": 10084
}

Example query

Function notation

create emoji_value from chr(emoji_numeric_value)

Method notation

create emoji_value from emoji_numeric_value.chr()

Example output

Both notations produce:

{
    "emoji_numeric_value": 10084,
    "emoji_value": "❤"
}
