char_from_unicode

Returns the unicode character for a given unicode value. This is meant for dynamic input that needs converting to a unicode character, if you're hardcoding it, you should just use '\u1234' syntax instead, however, this is the dynamic equivalent of the \u string escape, so '\u1234' == char_from_unicode(parse_int('1234', 16)) == char_from_unicode(0x1234). Despite the name, certain unicode escapes may return multiple characters, so there is no guarantee that length(char_from_unicode(@val)) will equal 1.
