Question

How to convert a byte to a char? I don’t mean an ASCII representation.
I have a variable of type byte and want it as a character.

I want just following conversions from byte to char:
0 ->’0′
1 ->’1′
2 ->’2′
3 ->’3′
4 ->’4′
5 ->’5′
6 ->’6′
7 ->’7′
8 ->’8′
9 ->’9′

(char)1 and Convert.ToChar(1) do not work. They result in '' because they think 1 is the ASCII code.

Answer 1

the number .ToString();

one.ToString(); // one.ToString()[0] - first char -'1'
two.ToString(); // two.ToString()[0] - first char -'2'

Note that you can’t really convert a byte to a char
char is one char while byte can even three digits value!

If you want to use LINQ and you’re sure the byte won’t exceed one digit(10+) you can use this:

number.ToString().Single();
