Copy characters from string into char Array : String vs Char Array « Data Type « Java Tutorial

public class MainClass 
{
   public static void main( String args[] )
   {
      String s1 = "hello there";
      char charArray[] = new char[ 5 ];

      System.out.printf( "s1: %s", s1 );

      for ( int count = s1.length() - 1; count >= 0; count-- )
         System.out.printf( "%s ", s1.charAt( count ) );

      // copy characters from string into charArray
      s1.getChars( 0, 5, charArray, 0 );
      System.out.print( "\nThe character array is: " );

      for ( char character : charArray )
         System.out.print( character );
   }
}

s1: hello theree r e h t   o l l e h 
The character array is: hello
