Given a String str and an int n, return a one-character String containing the nth character of the input. For this problem, some of the inputs will have less than n characters. If the input has less than n characters, return the entire input.


HINT

Use substring() with two parameters to do this, as well as the length() method.  Remember that the nth character has index n-1.

apcsaStringsGimmeSingle("quick", 5) → "k"
apcsaStringsGimmeSingle("hi", 4) → "hi"
apcsaStringsGimmeSingle("Where are you?", 3) → "e"

...Save, Compile, Run (ctrl-enter)

public String apcsaStringsGimmeSingle(String str, int n) { }
