What's the simplest way to convert from a single character String to an ASCII value in Swift?

Question

I just want to get the ASCII value of a single char string in Swift. This is how I\'m currently doing it:

var singleChar = \"a\"
println(singleChar.unicodeSc

var singchar = "a" as NSString

print(singchar.character(at: 0))
