If 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);

You can use the .charAt(int) function with Strings to retrieve the char value at any index. If you want to convert the String to a char array, try calling .toCharArray() on the String.

String g = "line";
char c = g.charAt(0);  // returns 'l'
char[] c_arr = g.toCharArray(); // returns a length 4 char array ['l','i','n','e']

you can use this trick :

String s = "p";

char c = s.charAt(0);

If the string is 1 character long, just take that character. If the string is not 1 character long, it cannot be parsed into a character.


I found this useful:

double  --> Double.parseDouble(String);
float   --> Float.parseFloat(String);
long    --> Long.parseLong(String);
int     --> Integer.parseInt(String);
char    --> stringGoesHere.charAt(int position);
short   --> Short.parseShort(String);
byte    --> Byte.parseByte(String);
boolean --> Boolean.parseBoolean(String);
