[erlang-questions] Conversion of string into Ascii values ??

[J Bhanot]

Hi,

In following code:

add(Mymsg) ->
 io:format("jbss msg  ~w~n", [Mymsg]),

when I am executing complex3:add(["abc"]).......where complex3 is my 
module name.....

I get the output as 

jbss msg  [97,98,99]........

Why is it coverting abc in ascii value.....

Is there a way in which I can get - 

jbss msg abc

Thanks,
jb
