title: How to convert a single character into Scala's Char object?
body: <p>What is the simplest and the most concise method of converting a single character into <strong>Scala</strong>'s <strong>Char</strong> object?</p>
  
  <p>I have found the following solution, but somehow it seems unsatisfying to me, as I believe it should have been possible to resolve this problem in a more elegant <strong>Scala</strong>-way without using unnecessary conversions and array-specific operations:</p>
  
  <pre><code>scala&gt; "A".toCharArray.head
  res0: Char = A
  </code></pre>
