Example: java string contains char

/*
    This method returns true if the given string contains
    the char n. It is necessary due to the
    obsolescence of some compilers, which requires us
    to write our own contains method.
    */
    public static boolean contains_char (String main, char secondary)
    {
        boolean contains_result = false;
        for (int i = 0 ; i < input.length () ; i++)
        {
            if (input.charAt (i) == secondary)
            {
                contains_result = true;
                break;
            }
        }
        return contains_result;
    }

/*
for two chars:
