Scanner class with char

Question

How do i make this work?Scanner class doesnt seem to have anything to input a char from the keyboard?Do i have to turn it inot a string or something?
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Char
  public static void main(String[] args)
          char letter ;
       int count = 0 ;
       System.out.println (" Enter first character : " );
          Scanner myScanner = new Scanner (System.in);
      letter = myScanner.getChar();
       while ( letter != '!')
            System.out.println(letter);
            count++ ;
            System.out.print("Enter next  character : ") ;
            letter = myScanner.nextchar();
       System.out.println(" Number of characters was " + count);
}

Try a java.util.Pattern with the next() method.
import java.util.NoSuchElementException;
import java.util.Scanner;
class Z
    public static void main(String[] args)
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        String s = "";
        try
            s = sc.next(".");
        catch (NoSuchElementException e)
            System.out.println("Only single characters allowed");
        System.out.println("Valid input: " + s);
        sc.close();
}
