Compare the last Char to the First Char in a Sting

Question

Hello, this should be easy but I'm having problems so here goes.
I get the user to input a Stirng and I want it to compare the last Char to the first Char. I have writen this but StartWith can take a Char?
public static void main(String[] args) {
        // TODO code application logic here
        String strA = new String();
        int length = 0;
        char lastLetter;
        System.out.println("Please input your first String: ");
               strA = EasyIn.getString();
             length = strA.length()-1;
               lastLetter = strA.charAt(length);
       if( strA.endsWith(lastLetter))
            System.out.println("The first letter matches the last");
       else
                   System.out.println("They Don't match");
}I have tried lastLetter.endsWith(strA) but that dosn't work some thing to do with it not taking Char
From reading you can go strA.startWith("R") and that would look for R but you can't put a char in that would be a single letter.
I also tried to lastletter to a string but then charAt wouldn't work.

Answer 1

fixed it I used substring as its a string object any one recomend a better way let me know
public static void main(String[] args) {
        // TODO code application logic here
        String strA = new String();
        int length = 0;
        String lastLetter;
        System.out.println("Please input your first String: ");
               strA = EasyIn.getString();
             length = strA.length()-1;
               lastLetter = strA.substring(length);
       if( strA.startsWith(lastLetter))
            System.out.println("The first letter matches the last");
       else
                   System.out.println("They Don't match");
}
