Conversion to char

[xxvms]

Hi there

Can you help me please with this.
What (char)i exactly do?

I understand it converts integer numbers to equivalent ASCII, but I don't understand how this works. I don't know what the brackets and char inside means.

Can you point me to some description, manual etc?

thanks :)

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>



int main()
{
	for (int i = 97; i < 123; i++)
	{
		
		std::cout << (char)i << ", " << i << std::endl;

	}

	system("pause");

    return 0;
}
