Mascii_u_sumthin Challenge Solution

for arg in ARGV
   file = File.open(arg)

   file_data = file.read.split

   file_data.each do |thing|

     converted = ""
     converted = Integer(thing)

     print converted.chr

   end
end

Solution Notes:

The HEX,BIN,OCT,DEC are in the form of String originally, thus it first needs to be formatted into an Integer using the Integer() class
The to_i method does not work for the converted variable for integer convertion
Finally, the .chr method only works on an Integer variable.
