I'm doing a project for Java 1, and I'm completely stuck on this question.
Basically I need to double each letter in a string.
"abc" -> "aabbcc"
"uk" -> "uukk"
"t" -> "tt"
I need to do it in a while loop in what is considered "Java 1" worthy. So i'm guessing that this means more of a problematic approach.
I know that the easiest way for me to do this, from my knowledge, would be using the charAt method in a while loop, but for some reason my mind can't figure out how to return the characters to another method as a string.
Thanks
[EDIT] My Code (wrong, but maybe this will help)
int index = 0;
int length = str.length();
while (index < length) {
return str.charAt(index) + str.charAt(index);
index++;
}
Yeah, a for loop would really make more sense here, but if you need to use a while loop then it would look like this:
String s = "abc";
String result = "";
int i = 0;
while (i < s.length()){
char c = s.charAt(i);
result = result + c + c;
i++;
}
