HI lists
when I do select
select dump('k',1010) from dual (decimal)
i get 107 as the ascii value
to get an octal we substitute 1008
in the place of 1010 and the result is 153 for 'k'.
and select chr(107) from dual (decimal)
value is ''k'
if i use
select chr(153) from dual, giving some wrong value...
how do i convert this octal to decimal
