'and' shd have been declared as char... not a String .. since name.charAt(i)
is a char .. See fixed code below:
public class Backward {
/**
* @param args
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Scanner in=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter a Name to Reverse:");
String name = in.next();
char and;
String ans ="";
int l=name.length();
int i;
for (i=l-1; i>=0; i--)
{
and=name.charAt(i);
ans= ans+and;
}
System.out.println("The Output is:" + ans);
}
}
