And what it supposed to mean when presented as double? Why? just to waste 8 bytes instead of one? I don't see any sense...

you can simply assign the unsigned char value to a variable of type double as shown below

unsigned char ch = 'C';
double d = ch;

if you are so particular about using c++ style typecasting use static_cast as below

C++
double d = static_cast<double>( ch );</double>

I never understood why answering questions which seem to have no sense, even "correctly"...

Just assign it:
C++
unsigned char u = 150;
double d = u;

Because
I am not aware it is a nonsense.
Moreover, the OP
(1) May actually need it (e.g. he/she needs to pass a value to a function requiring the double - e.g. pow(u, u) wouldn't compile).
(2) Looks a bit confused (that is give him/her a hook).
