Character Variable Increment

[eranga262154]

Hi....

Please consider the following lines.

char index = 'a';
System.out.println(index);

This will printout letter ‘a’. I want to display all the letters (i.e. from ‘a’ to ‘z’), can someone explain how to do this using any iteration. Only condition is variable index should be character type.

Have you tried using the increment operator?

If that doesn't work, you can just cast, add, and cast back.

  public static void main ( String args[] )
  {
    for(char i='a';i<='z';i++){
      System.out.println(i);
    }
  }

Thanks a lot dear,

I forgot that. Let me tried

[eranga262154]

  public static void main ( String args[] )
  {
    for(char i='a';i<='z';i++){
      System.out.println(i);
    }
  }

Thanks a lot, it's ok.

I'll try to do this before, but something wrong on it.

What version of Java do you use?

[System_Error]

  public static void main ( String args[] )
  {
    for(char i='a';i<='z';i++){
      System.out.println(i);
    }
  }

You beat me too it

This piece of code is very useful in many different situations

Yeah, you are right.
y'know, the things that Java can do always amaze me

What version of Java do you use?

I used JDK 1.4

Something wrong with it?

The code above should work on 1.4

Ya, exactly,

I test your code and it is fine. Thanks.
