Cannot or can?

[ilovephil]

can i return a value using CHAR DATA TYPE? NOT INT?
ex.int data;
int value(ex.data)
return data;
how about this
ex.char name;
int(ex.name)
return name;
possible or not?

[thines01]

Yes

char GetChar()
{
   return 'a';
}

or

char GetChar(int iValue)
{
   return (char) iValue; //there can be side-effects if the value is outside of the range.
}

how about in link list may i use that?i need to store strings. my problem is i cannot solve my problem in strings can u help me? =))

[thines01]

What do you mean?
Yes, you can store a char in a linked list.

What are you trying to do?
I should not guess at potential solutions when I don't know the actual problem.

Is this the same question?
