Count special characters in string

Here given code implementation process.

// Java program

	public boolean is_special(char data)

		//Condition which is checking the following case
		//Character is alphabetic character like [a-z, A-Z]
		//Character is numeric character, like [0-9]
		//Any one condition true then given character not special

            || (data >= 'A' && data <= 'Z')

		{
			return false;

		//Otherwise character is special character
		return true;
	}
	//Calculate the number of all special characters in string
	public void count_special_char(String text)
	{
