[situation]

I would like to ask
how can I print a single character from a string every time??

for example
in array[1] , a word "language" is stored

I would like to print a single reversed character every time
ie,
the output is
e
g
a
u
g
n
a
l

however, I print the wrong result
I know I should not use substring
But I don't know what method can fit my requirement

So, I hope people can help me
Thank you very much!

				for ( int y = 0; y < tempStr[20].length() - 1; y++ )
				System.out.println(tempStr[20].substring(tempStr[20].length()- y));

you need another loop

for ( int y = 0; y < tempStr[20].length(); y++ )
	for(int x = tempStr[y].length()-1; x >= 0; x--)
				System.out.println(tempStr.charAt(x));

thank you for your reply first

when I compile my program,
an error message is shown

ps, I have import java.io.*;

Alright, if it were me, I would do it this way.
First of all, make "language" a String. Then make separate all the characters into a char array with toCharArray() method. Then use a for loop to reversely loop and print out the characters.
It should look like this I guess.

String str = "language";
char[] chArr = str.toCharArray();
for(int i = chArr.length - 1;i >= 0;i--)
   System.out.println(chArr[i]);

I guess it should look like that. Didn't try out that code.
