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.
- The method “trim” denotes a built-in function that eliminates leading as well as trailing spaces in string.
Given code:
String str1 ="William ";
String str2 ="the";
String str3 ="Conqueror";
System.out.println(str1.trim() + str2.trim() +
str3. trim());
Explanation:
- The strings are been stored in variables “str1”, “str2” and “str3”.
- The strings are been trimmed using “trim()” method.
- The resultant strings are concatenated using “+” operator.
- The result of concatenation is been displayed.
