Program Plan Intro
String class:
- The “String” class provides a number of methods that examines for a string inside of a string.
- The term “substring” refers to a string that denotes another string’s part.
- The “startsWith” method would determine whether calling string of object begins with a specific substring.
- The method returns “true” if string begins with specified substring, it returns “false” otherwise.
- The “endsWith” method would determine whether calling string would end with a specified substring.
- The method returns “true” if string ends with specified substring, it returns “false” otherwise.
- The “regionMatches” method would determine whether specified regions for two strings match.
- The first argument of this method can be “true” or “false” that indicates whether a case-insensitive comparison could be performed.
StringBuilder class:
- The “StringBuilder” class is same as “String” class except that contents of “StringBuilder” objects could be changed.
- It provides several methods that “String” class does not have.
- The “append” method accepts an argument that might be a primitive data type.
- It appends a string representation to contents of calling object.
- The “insert” method accepts two arguments, an integer that specifies position in string of calling object as well as value to be inserted.
- The “replace” method replaces occurrences of single character with another character.
- The “deleteCharAt” method removes character at specified position in sequence
- The “toString” method converts a “StringBuilder” object in to a regular string.
