Java String – A String variable is simply a variable that stores a reference to an object of the class String. You declare a String variable in much the same way as you define a variable of one of the basic types.
replace The replace( ) method of the String class enables us to replace every occurrence of one character with another character. replaceFirst The replaceFirst( ) method of the String class enables us to replace first occurrence of substring with another substring. replaceAll The capability of replaceAll( ) makes the complex search of substrings possible within a string … Read more…
replaceAll The capability of replaceAll() makes the complex search of substrings possible within a string object. After a search, each matched substring is replaced with the given replacement. 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…
Extracting Characters If we wish to extract more than one character at a time from a string, we have to use the getChars( ) method. For example, in the following program, the characters staring from the position ‘5’ and ending with the position ’16-1′ will be extracted and then stored in the character array ‘str1′ … 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…
Comparing Length It should be carefully noted here equals( ), equalsIgnoreCase( ) methods enable us to check whether two strings are identical or not. 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 … Read more…
RegionMatches The String class provides one more specialized method for comparison. It is regionMatches( ) method. This method enables us to compare a specific region inside a string with another specific region in another string. For example, in the following program, a substring of length ‘4’ starting from the position ‘3’ in the String object … Read more…
