Character Variable Increment

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.

Code:

---

  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?

Something wrong with it?

The code above should work on 1.4

Ya, exactly,

I test your code and it is fine. Thanks.
