Excel Functions / TEXT / CHAR

In Short: This function returns the ANSI (American National Standard Institute) code of the number provided.

Explained:
Every character used by our computer, in general, and Microsoft Excel, in particular, has a specific number assigned to it. Microsoft makes use of ANSI codes that are set by an American private non-profit organization (ANSI Website). Out of these from 32 to 126 are taken from ASCII set.

Below is a screen shot where we have entered four examples to replicate the working of "CHAR" function.
