Erlang string from list

问题:

I have erlang list symbols: [104, 105, 106, 107 ...] How can i got string from this list:

"hijk..."?

Thank you.

Strings as a datatype do not exist in Erlang. Stings are simply lists of characters.

[104, 105, 106, 107] and "hijk" are perfectly equivalent.

In fact, if you type the original list in the shell you get back the "string":

1> [104, 105, 106, 107].   
"hijk"
