Java.lang.Character.charValue() is a built-in method in Java that returns the value of this character object. This method converts the Character object into its primitive data type char.
Syntax:
public char charValue() The function does not accepts any parameter.
Return Type: This method returns the primitive char value represented by this object.
Below programs illustrate the Java.lang.Character.charValue() method:
Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate the// Java.lang.Character.charValue() method// when the assigned char is a character import java.lang.*; public class Gfg1 { public static void main(String[] args) { // Create a character object Character x = new Character('z'); // assign the primitive value to a character char ch = x.charValue(); System.out.println("Primitive char value is " + ch); }} |
Output:
Primitive char value is z
Program 2: When we assign the value of x by any digit:
// Java program to demonstrate the// function when the assigned value is// a numberimport java.lang.*; public class Gfg { public static void main(String[] args) { // create a Character object x Character x = new Character('9'); // assign value is a number // assign the primitive value to a character char ch = x.charValue(); // print the primitive char value System.out.println("Primitive char value is " + ch); }} |
Output:
Primitive char value is 9
