How to convert/parse from String to char in java?

Question

How do I parse a String value to a char type, in Java?

I know how to do it to int and double (for example Integer.parseInt("123")). Is there a class for Strings and Chars?

Answer 1

f your string contains exactly one character the simplest way to convert it to a character is probably to call the charAt method:

char c = s.charAt(0);
