Syntax
ORD(str)
Description
If the leftmost character of the string str
is a multi-byte character,
returns the code for that character, calculated from the numeric
values of its constituent bytes using this formula:
(1st byte code) + (2nd byte code x 256) + (3rd byte code x 256 x 256) ...
If the leftmost character is not a multi-byte character, ORD() returns the same value as the ASCII() function.
Examples
SELECT ORD('2'); +----------+ | ORD('2') | +----------+ | 50 | +----------+
