The string valueOf(char c) method is simply to get a String equivalent of char method parameter. This method be statically accessed which means we should call the method like String.valueOfvalueOf(char c).

Java Code Example :

This example source code demonstrates the use of valueOf(char c) of String class. We have used the the toCharArray method to convert String into an array of element. We then use the for each loop to iterate through our character array to print the value of each character of our char array.

package com.javatutorialhq.java.tutorial.string;

/*
 * Java example source code to get the value of char data type
 */

public class StringValueOfChar {

	public static void main(String[] args) {

		// declare a sample string value
		String strValue = "William";
		// convert strValue to character array
		char[] values = strValue.toCharArray();
		// for each element on char array
		for(char c:values){
			// print the String value of char c
			System.out.println(String.valueOf(c));
		}

	}

}
