Program Program Source public class Javaapp { public static void main(String[] args){ String str1 = new String(“Java Pro Tutorials”); str1 = str1.replaceAll(“Pro”, “Programming”); String str2 = new … Read more…
String to Char Array If we wish to extract more than one character at a time from a string, we have to use the getChars( ) method: For example: The characters staring from the position ‘3’ and ending with the position ‘8-1′ will be extracted and then stored in the character array ‘chararray’ from the … Read more…
IgnoreCase A minor variant of the equals( ) method, namely the equalsIgnoreCase( ) method is also available. This method ignores the case of each character in the strings during the comparison. For example, in the following program, the case of each character is ignored by the equalsIgnoreCase( ) method, this method will return the value … Read more…

However, in some situations, we may wish to test whether one string is greater than, equal to or less than another string. The compareTo( ) method of the String class is useful in all such … Read more…
