Iterate through characters in a string java

Question

Problem:

Hello Kodlogs,

How can I iterate through characters in a string java? The question coming from a novice in java. So, please keep your answer as easier as possible.

Note: I can declare a string type in Java.

Answer 1

Well, in Java, there are a couple of ways to iterate through characters in a string. As per your question, you can use the .charAt() or the .toCharArray() function. These two are the easiest and efficient ways to iterate through chars in a string. Let me give an example by using them in my program.

 Using .charAt() function:

public class MyClass{	
	public static void main (String[] args){
		String str = "I am Gavin";
		for (int n = 0; n < str.length(); n++){
			System.out.print(str.charAt(n));
		}
	}
}

Using .toCharArray() function:

public class MyClass{
	public static void main (String[] args){
		String str = "I am Gavin";
		char[] chars = str.toCharArray();
		for (char ch : chars){
			System.out.print(ch);
		}
	}
}

Above both program will produce the same output

I am Gavin
