Reading Characters from a Word ? Java

Question

I am trying to get the characters or the letters from a word.

For example:

input = "apple"
output = "a", "p", "p", "l", "e"

However, I am using the BufferedReader class. Is there any way to read characters using BufferedReader?

Thank you

Answer 1

String input = "apple";
char[] arr = input.toCharArray();
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(arr));

Output:

[a, p, p, l, e]

Answer 2

The read() method of BufferedReader gives you a single character.

Have a look at this.
