title: Python unicode codepoint to unicode character
body: <p>I'm trying to write out to a flat file some Chinese, or Russian or various non-English character-sets for testing purposes. I'm getting stuck on how to output a Unicode hex-decimal or decimal value to its corresponding character. </p>
  
  <p>For example in Python, if you had a hard coded set of characters like <code>абвгдежзийкл</code> you would assign <code>value = u"абвгдежзийкл"</code> and no problem. </p>
  
  <p>If however you had a single decimal or hex decimal like 1081 / 0439 stored in a variable and you wanted to print that out with it's corresponding actual character (and not just output 0x439) how would this be done? The Unicode decimal/hex value above refers to <code>й</code>.</p>
