find the differences

Question:

Given two strings s and t which consist of only lowercase letters.

Find the letter that was added in t.

Solution:

Java:

public char findTheDifference(String s, String t) { 
    int n = t.length(); 
    char c = t.charAt(n - 1); 
    for (int i = 0; i < n - 1; ++i) {       
        c ^= s.charAt(i);
        c ^= t.charAt(i);
    } 
    return c;
