'VB.Net program to demonstrate the GetChar() function.

Module Module1

    Sub Main()
        Dim ch As Char
        Dim str1 As String = "Hello World"
        Dim str2 As String = "Hello India"
        Dim str3 As String = "Hello Delhi"

        Console.WriteLine("Char at index {0}: {1}", 5, ch)

        ch = GetChar(str2, 7)
        Console.WriteLine("Char at index {0}: {1}", 7, ch)

        ch = GetChar(str3, 8)
        Console.WriteLine("Char at index {0}: {1}", 8, ch)
    End Sub

End Module

Output:

Char at index 5: o
Char at index 7: I
Char at index 8: e
Press any key to continue . . .

Explanation:

In the above program, we created a module Module1 that contains a Main() method. In the Main() method, we created three variables str1, str2, and str3 that are initialized with "Hello World", "Hello India", and "Hello Delhi".

ch = GetChar(str1, 5)
Console.WriteLine("Char at index {0}: {1}", 5, ch)

ch = GetChar(str2, 7)
Console.WriteLine("Char at index {0}: {1}", 7, ch)

ch = GetChar(str3, 8)
Console.WriteLine("Char at index {0}: {1}", 8, ch)

In the above code, we got the character from a specified string on a specified index and then we printed them on the console screen.
