Java Character toString(char c) Method

Java toString(char c) method is a part of the Character class. This method returns the equivalent String object of the specified character value. The result is a string of length consisting solely of the specified char.This method does not handle supplementary characters.

This method is used to convert char value into String.

Syntax:

Parameters:

The parameter passed is the char value whose equivalent String is to be returned.

Returns:

Returns the String equivalent of the character value passed as a parameter.

Example 1:

Here, the character values are converted into its equivalent String representations.

public class StudyTonight
{  
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {  
        char ch1 = 'A';
        char ch2 = 't';
        System.out.println("Equivalent String is : "+Character.toString(ch1));   
        System.out.println("Equivalent String is : "+Character.toString(ch2));   
    }  
} 


Equivalent String is : A
Equivalent String is : t

Example 2:

Here is a user-defined example where anyone using this code can put a value of his choice and get the equivalent output.

import java.util.Scanner;  
public class StudyTonight
{  
    public static void main(String[] args)
