chars are primitives representing a single character. What you show is a String inside of single quotes which is not legal syntax in java.
A char literal would be: 'p' or 'f'
"playing" is a String

The StringTokenizer in java.util.* may do your job.

Use the spilt method (which goes into a string array) so string.split(" ")...that should do it
