In this article, we will discuss how to convert String into char[] array using String’s toCharArray() method

1. String’s toCharArray() method:

• This String method is used to convert any given string into char[] array

1.1 Method Signature:

public char[] toCharArray();

1.2 Returns:

• New char[] array equivalent to string’s length
• Whose contents are initialized to contain the character sequence represented by the invoking string

2. Examples on toCharArray() method:

2.1 To create equivalent char[] array for the invoking string

StringToCharArrayMethod.java

package in.bench.resources.string.methods;

public class StringToCharArrayMethod {

	public static void main(String[] args) {

		// sample string
		String url = "JavaWorld";

		// convert string into char[] array
		char[] chArray = url.toCharArray();

		// iterate using for-loop and store into char[] array
		for(char ch : chArray) {
			System.out.println(ch);
		}
	}
}

Output:

J
a
v
a
W
o
r
l
d
