Or if you want to make it a little more understandable:
char ch = (char) (i + 'a');
Note that the previously suggested use of the substring() method has two
drawbacks: it returns a String, not a char as originally requested; and it
creates a new String object every time it's called. Both problems would be
avoided by using charAt() rather than substring(). Still not as fast as the
straight arithmetic shown above.
