Print ASCII-characters

I would like to create ASCII characters in loop based on an integer variable. The result should be like this, but without the character vector:

 v<-c("A","B","C","D","E")

 for (i in 1:5) print(paste("ASCII:",v[i]))

If I start with

 for (i in 65:69)

how do I continue?

Thanks&kind regards

Use intToUtf8():

for (i in 65:69) print(paste('ASCII:',intToUtf8(i)));
## [1] "ASCII: A"
## [1] "ASCII: B"
## [1] "ASCII: C"
## [1] "ASCII: D"
## [1] "ASCII: E"

This is not directly relevant to your question, but we can utilize the multiple argument of intToUtf8() to generate a character vector of the output in one line:

paste('ASCII:',intToUtf8(65:69,T));
## [1] "ASCII: A" "ASCII: B" "ASCII: C" "ASCII: D" "ASCII: E"
