D2C (Decimal to Character)




 >>---D2C(wholenumber -+-----+-)------><
                       +-,n--+

D2C returns a character string that is the ASCII representation of the 
decimal number. If you specify n, it is the length of the final result in 
characters and leading blanks are added to the output character. 
If n is not specified, wholenumber must be a nonnegative number and the 
resulting length is as needed; therefore, the returned result has no 
leading 00x characters. 
Here are some examples: 

D2C(65)      ->   'A'      /* '41'x is an ASCII 'A'    */
D2C(65,1)    ->   'A'
D2C(65,2)    ->   ' A'
D2C(65,5)    ->   '    A'
D2C(109)     ->   'm'      /* '6D'x  is an ASCII 'm'   */
D2C(-109,1)  ->   'ô'      /* '147'x is an ASCII 'ô'   */
D2C(76,2)    ->   ' L'     /* '76'x  is an ASCII ' L'  */
D2C(-180,2)  ->   ' L'
