Problem

Print out the entire lower case letters of the aplhabet. Use the following guidelines in coming up with a solution:

• char for printing out the each lowercase letter in the alphabet.
• Output using System.out.println
• Commenting our code.

While and For Loops

Solution

To get the next letter in the alphabet you can add 1 each time to the char variable.

int numLetters = 26;
char letter = 'a';

for(int i = 0; i < numLetters; i++)
{
    System.out.println(letter);
    letter = letter + 1;
}

Code

Solution Code

public class PrintOutTheAlphabet
{
    public static void main(String [ ] args)
    {
        int numLetters = 26;
        char letter = 'a';
        
        for(int i = 0; i < numLetters; i++)
        {
            System.out.println(letter);
            letter++;
        }
    }
}
