Is there any way to convert unicode values to ASCII?
303
char character = 'a'; int ascii = (int) character; In your case, you need to get the specific Character from the String first and then cast it. char character = name. charAt(0); // This gives the character 'a' int ascii = (int) character; // ascii is now 97.
In summary, to convert Unicode characters into ASCII characters, use the normalize() function from the unicodedata module and the built-in encode() function for strings. You can either ignore or replace Unicode characters that do not have ASCII counterparts.
Unicode is the universal character encoding used to process, store and facilitate the interchange of text data in any language while ASCII is used for the representation of text such as symbols, letters, digits, etc. in computers.
World's simplest unicode tool. This browser-based utility converts fancy Unicode text back to regular text. All Unicode glyphs that you paste or enter in the text area as the input automatically get converted to simple ASCII characters in the output.
To simply strip the accents from unicode characters you can use something like:
string.Concat(input.Normalize(NormalizationForm.FormD).Where(
c => CharUnicodeInfo.GetUnicodeCategory(c) != UnicodeCategory.NonSpacingMark));
