I am writing a parser. I have a character and want to know what it is (number, letter, special character etc).

Code:

char ch = 'a';
if (Character.isLetter(ch)) {  
...
}
if (Character.isDigit(ch)) {       // false
 ...
}
if (Character.isLowerCase(ch)) {   // true
 ...
}
if (Character.isUpperCase(ch)) {   // false
 ...
}

Special characters are %, &, /, (, ), = etc. Is there any method in Character class that I can use

Thanks in advance.
