CODE
returns the numeric code for the first character in a text string.
Syntax:
CODE(text)
- returns the numeric code for the first character of the text string text, in the range 0-255.
- Codes greater than 127 may depend on your system's character mapping (for example iso-8859-1, iso-8859-2, Windows-1252, Windows-1250), and hence may not be portable.
Example:
CODE("H")
- returns 72, the character code for "H".
CODE("Hello")
- also returns 72.

Notes:
- The international standard ODFF will introduce the more versatile functions UNICODE and UNICHAR, which will be implemented in Calc.
