I'm trying to write a recursive method that will print a char c, x amount of times on the same line. I was thinking that I could return the recursive function call and concatenate the char c but I don't think my compiler agrees. What exactly are the properties of chars and how can I go about doing this?

Jump to PostCan't you just store the values on a String and then accept a value for the count of recursion. Call the method passing the String and Integer.
If you must use a char data type, then is a simple typecasting.

Why do you want to bother doing all that stuff? When a simple typecasting is enough.

Cannot extend char (Character class). It is final.
