dart:convert

convert method

String convert(List<int> codeUnits, [ int start = 0, int end ])

Converts the UTF-8 codeUnits (a list of unsigned 8-bit integers) to the corresponding string.

Uses the code units from start to, but no including, end. If end is omitted, it defaults to codeUnits.length.

If the codeUnits start with the encoding of a UNICODE_BOM_CHARACTER_RUNE, that character is discarded.
