correct?
Absolutely, 100%

Because thats what I was doing and it would spit some error talking about comparison with 'letter' and 'i'.
Saying that 'letter' is a character and 'i' is an int.

Thats where I got the compiler error.
That's impossible. You were either mistaken about what line it was referring to, or you were mistaken about what it was telling you, or you were mistaken about something else.
Please post the relevant code code and actual copy and pasted error messages.
