Hii there can I write Scanner scn = new Scanner(System. In) ;char ch=scn.nextChar();

Question

I mean does scanner class support character input by its next method ()

Answer 1

There is no method such as nextChar in java.

you could use Scn.next() function to read the input whether it is a single character or a string. ( where Scn is the name that you gave your Scanner ) However, if you want to consume strictly a single character, you could also use the following :

char ch = Scn.next().charAt(0); to take the first char

char ch = Scn.next(".").charAt(0); for a single character string.

Basically, charAt(x) function returns the xth character of the string.

Hope this helps
