Python character generation

Question

Is there an equivalent Python function to JavaScript's String.fromCharCode?

The use case is a string generator and I'd like to use the ASCII decimal or hex values to generate the characters (numbers, symbols, upper/lower letters).

JS example:

String.fromCharCode(97) // Gives 'a'

`chr(97)` should do what you want. – Federico klez Culloca Nov 16 '18 at 14:49 — Federico klez Culloca, Nov 16 '18 at 14:49
@B.M. there's the answer in there, but just incidentally – Federico klez Culloca Nov 16 '18 at 14:55 — Federico klez Culloca, Nov 16 '18 at 14:55

The built-in chr function handles this (ord performs the inverse transformation)
