Following is the declaration for java.lang.StringBuffer.codePointAt() method

public int codePointAt(int index)

• NA

Example

The following example shows the usage of java.lang.StringBuffer.codePointAt() method.

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.lang.*;

public class StringBufferDemo {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
  
    StringBuffer buff = new StringBuffer("TUTORIALS");
    System.out.println("buffer = " + buff);

    // returns the codepoint at index 5
    int retval = buff.codePointAt(5);
    System.out.println("Character(unicode point) = " + retval);
    
    buff = new StringBuffer("amrood admin ");
    System.out.println("buffer = " + buff);
    // returns the codepoint at index 6 i.e whitespace character
    retval = buff.codePointAt(6);
    System.out.println("Character(unicode point) = " + retval);
  }
}

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result:

buffer = TUTORIALS
Character(unicode point) = 73
buffer = amrood admin
Character(unicode point) = 32
