In short, I have an array of words such as {apple, banana, cat}
and I'm looking to see if I can convert that into {a, p, p, l, e, b, a, ....}
I'm not sure if it's even possible.
My initial stupid attempt:
for(String s: lelWords)
{
lelChars.add(s.toCharArray());
}
String[] strArray = {"apple", "banana", "cat"};
//combine all words to one string
String combStr = new String();
for(String string: strArray)
combStr += string;
char[] charArray = combStr.toCharArray();
//checking
System.out.println(charArray);
Should be pretty simple
int numChars = 0;
//determine the total number of characters
for (int i = 0; i < strings.length; i++)
numChars += strings[i].length();
int idx = 0;
//declare our final array of characters
char[] chars = new char[numChars];
//populate our new array
for (int i = 0; i < strings.length; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < strings[i].length; j++) {
chars[idx] = strings[i].charAt(j);
idx++;
}
}
