What's the "java" way of converting chars (digits) to ints

Given the following code:

    char x = '5';
    int a0 = x - '0'; // 0
    int a1 = Integer.parseInt(x + ""); // 1
    int a2 = Integer.parseInt(Character.toString(x)); // 2
    int a3 = Character.digit(x, 10); // 3
    int a4 = Character.getNumericValue(x); // 4
    System.out.printf("%d %d %d %d %d", a0, a1, a2, a3, a4);

What do you consider to be the "best-way" to convert a char into an int ? ("best-way" ~= idiomatic way)

We are not converting the actual numerical value of the char, but the value of the representation.

Eg.:

convert('1') -> 1
convert('2') -> 2
....
