final char ctrlA = '\u0001';

happens to be unicode-16, char 1

edit: if you want a more 'automated' method you could use a StringBuilder as you are reading in the fields. someone already explained this here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/152677/4197697

That's fine, is it not directly possible to append ctrl+A character at the time string creation without declaring character like this – agarwal_achhnera Dec 10 '14 at 02:14
'\u0001' is the Ctrl+A character, but declaring it like this makes your code readable – softwarenewbie7331 Dec 10 '14 at 02:15
yes that's fine, but is there a way to append at the time of string creation – agarwal_achhnera Dec 10 '14 at 02:18
