Extract char

[misterowakka]

I have a vector of strings

vector<string> notes;

Each string is built from a collection of chars.

I want to extract the first char:

vector<string>::iterator notes_iterator;
for(notes_iterator=notes.begin(); notes_iterator!=notes.end(); notes_iterator++) 
{
	char tempchar=notes_iterator->begin();
}

I get the error:

error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'std::basic_string<_Elem,_Traits,_Ax>::iterator' to 'char'
        with
        [
            _Elem=char,
            _Traits=std::char_traits<char>,
            _Ax=std::allocator<char>
        ]

Found it. Should add an astrix

char tempchar=*notes_iterator->begin();

It's a vector of std::strings, not char, so you need to do some appropriate action on the std::string object to get the char.
