Kotlin Program to Display Characters from A to Z using loop

Example 1: Display Uppercased A to Z

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    var c: Char

    c = 'A'
    while (c <= 'Z') {
        print("$c ")
        ++c
    }
}

When you run the program, the output will be:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z 

Like Java, you can loop through A to Z using a for loop because they are stored as ASCII characters in Kotlin.

So, internally, you loop through 65 to 90 to print the English alphabets.

Here's the equivalent Java code: Java Program to Display English Alphabets

With a little modification you can display lowercased alphabets as shown in the example below.


Example 2: Display Lowercased a to z

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    var c: Char

    c = 'a'
    while (c <= 'z') {
        print("$c ")
        ++c
    }
}

When you run the program, the output will be:

a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z 

You simply replace 'A' with 'a' and 'Z' with 'z' to display the lowercased alphabets. In this case, interally you loop through 97 to 122.
