Print unicode character from variable (swift)

Question

I have a problem I couldn\'t find a solution to. I have a string variable holding the unicode \"1f44d\" and I want to convert it to a unicode character

Answer 1

Here are a couple ways to do it:

let string = "1f44d"

Solution 1:

"&#x\(string);".applyingTransform(.toXMLHex, reverse: true)

Solution 2:

"U+\(string)".applyingTransform(StringTransform("Hex/Unicode"), reverse: true)
