How do you check a single digit in an int? I know for Strings you can use charAt(), but if you try to use it for an int it will return an error message. Is there any way to check a single digit and set it to a variable in a multiple digit number?

    Convert int to String and use charAt, or use something like `(x/10...0)%10` (depending on digit you want to get). – Pshemo Dec 01 '15 at 22:25

    @KickButtowski Regex works on `String` (text), not on `int`. – Pshemo Dec 01 '15 at 22:27

You can convert int to String and can use charAt as follow

int a = 566;
String s = Integer.toString(a);
System.out.println(s.charAt(0));

Output: 5
