Printing Unicode code point to console using int intead of \uNNNN

Question

Hello, apologies if this is silly. How do I print a Unicode character, say \u20ac using an integer? So, instead of Console.WriteLine("\u20ac");, I would like to pass the integer 8364. Thanks.

Just cast the number to char which represents a UTF-16 code point:

public static void PrintChar(int codePoint)
{
    Console.WriteLine((char) codePoint);
}

PrintChar(8364);
