body: <p>//The Prompt is: Write a program that asks the user to enter a string, and //then ask the user to enter a character. The program should count and display //the number of times that the specified character appears  in the string.</p>
  
  <pre><code>import java.util.Scanner;
  public class LetterCounter{
  Scanner keyboard = new Scanner (System.in);     //Scanner
  // Declare Variables
      String userString;      // String user entered
      String userCharacter;   // Character user entered
      int StringSize;      
  // Ask the user to enter a string
      System.out.println("Please Enter a String.");
      userString = keyboard.nextLine();
  
  // Ask the user to enter a charcter
      System.out.println("Please Enter a Character.");
      userCharacter = keyboard.nextLine();
  
  // Count and display the number of times that character appears in the
  // string chosen by the user.
      int character; 
      character = Integer.parseInt(userCharacter);
      StringSize = userString.charAt(character);
  }
  }

  <p>Thanks for your help</p>
