Converting string into a char

[Rich Barry]

Hi...
I want to change a string into a char... so I am going to use the charAt function... and I am not sure what I am doing...
so I include the method where I am trying to convert it... the *** indicates where I am trying to use the charAt function...
Thx
Rich
private void deposit(){
String accounttype;
double depositamt;
System.out.println("Account Deposit:");
System.out.print("\n\tEnter the amount you wish to deposit: ");
depositamt = new Double(readit()).doubleValue();
System.out.println("\n\tEnter the account you wish to use.. C (chequing) S (savings)");
accounttype = readit();
***** accounttype charAt(0); *****
System.out.println(accounttype + depositamt);
Account acct = new Account();
acct.deposit(depositamt, accounttype);
}

char acctTypeChar = accountType.charAt(0);
You are going to need to deal with Cap input, and what if they enter a space before they enter the character, etc.
