character or digit

[mm8294]

My question is very simple: I have a string which is composed of three characters/digits, I need to know if the second character is a character ( AA6, etc. ) or a digit
( A6A, etc. ) ? I know this is pretty simple but I don't know how to do it. I am new to Java programming and I feel it is different to C.

Thank you very much for any help.

Hi,
U can use the following code
String str = "AA6";
if(Character.isDigit(str.charAt(1)))//pick the 2nd char
{
System.out.println("digit"
}
else if(Character.isLetter(str.charAt(1)))
{
System.out.println("character"
}

Hope this helps,
Reddy316.
