Thread: Character Array

How I can convert a string into a character array without using toCharArray???

I have done it with toCharArray(). Now I want to know is there any way to do it without using toCharArray() ???? Is there any please let me know.

import java.util.*;
public class cArray{
  public static void main(String[]args){
   Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
 
    System.out.println("Please Give A String");
    String s1 = input.nextLine();
    char[]data = s1.toCharArray();
  }
}

I am converting a String into a Char Array in this way. Now I want to do the same thing without using toCharArray(). so I want to know the alternative way.

H[0]
E[1]
...etc

In java strings are not terminated by a termination character. Thats in C++, C, etc.

Read the string API and try for yourself. There are plenty of ways for doing this.

Still I cant find another way to do the same thing. Can anyone give me any link. It will be better for me if you give me any link and a hint both. As I am a beginner in java I cant do it

Please don't post multiple threads on the same topic. Your other thread was deleted.

As for your question, we will not write the code or do Internet searching for you. Review the String API for methods that you could use to do what you've described. Try writing the code, and if you run into problems or need help, post the code and ask specific questions about the help you need.

As you are a beginner, these are basic skills you need to learn and practice.
