C String Manipulation Basics

Strings in C are arrays of characters terminated by a null character '\0'. To get the last character of a string, use str.charAt(str.length - 1) which returns a string containing the single last character. The \0 character is used to indicate the end of a character string in C. To remove the last character, set the character at index size-1 to '\0' where size is the length of the string.
