Working with Character Literals in Java: Handling the Apostrophe"

[K29]

If I want to work with a character literal, and it is the apostrophe, how do I do this?

For example:

if(Word.charAt(0)=='a'){
   \\do something
}else{
if(Word.charAt(0)=='''){
   \\do something else
}

Now, Word.charAt(0)==''' isn't allowed. In fact netbeans won't even let me type it. How do I overcome this?

Thanks in advance

I would try '\''.

But I can be wrong.

That worked. Thank you.
