Return the nth digit of a number [closed]

Answer 1

Convert number to string and then use the charAt() method.

class X{   
    static char digit(int a,int n)
    {
        String x=a+"";
        return x.charAt(n-1); 
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println(X.digit(123, 2));
    }
}

You may want to double check that the nth position is within the length of the number:

static char digit(int a, int n) {
    String x = a + "";
    char digit='\0' ;
    if (n > 0 && n <= x.length()) {
        digit = x.charAt(n - 1);
    }
    return digit;
}
