What meaning about the C# code

[yxq]

((char)('A' + i)).ToString();

i is As Integer, what meaning about the code above? how to convert to VB.NET
code? Thank you.

I have converted to the VB.NET code, but it is not right.
CChar(("A"c + i)).ToString()

I do not know C# well but the code obviously creates letter i in the alphabet.
This I am just able to manage without being a C# expert. ;)

My version was: (types used for less overhead)

Dim CodeA = Convert.ToUInt16("A"c)
Dim offset As UShort = 17
Dim NewCode = Convert.ToChar(CodeA + offset)

Or just replace CodeA by the literal 65US (unsigned short suffix) that we programmers
know by heart anyway. :) Oh, and add NewCode.ToString() if really required.

Or the other way of looking at it compared to Armin's answer: if the desired
result is "A1", "A2"... where i=1, 2... then

"A" & i.ToString()

But that is not what the C# code is doing. For i = 3, the C# code would
return "D", not "A3".

At least I've learnt something new today :-)

What about '... = ChrW(AscW("A"c) + i)'?
