java.io.BufferedReader keyBoard = new java.io.BufferedReader (
new InputStreamReader (System.in));
* Prompts the user to enter anything to be converted.
System.out.print ("Enter a string: ");
* Get the user input as stream from the keyboard.
String entered = keyBoard.readLine ();
* Loop throught the input and select the char at every
* point
for (int i = 0 ; i < entered.length () ; i++)
char c = entered.charAt (i);
* Print the char at (i) and convert it to a unicode.
//System.out.println (Integer.toBinaryString (c));
System.out.print ("\\u00" + Integer.toHexString (c));
//System.out.println (Integer.toOctalString (c));
