Java String 1. String String is basically an object that represents sequence of char values. An array of characters works same as java string. For example:

4 Constructing Strings String newString = new String(stringLiteral); String message = new String("Welcome to Java"); Since strings are used frequently, Java provides a shorthand initializer for creating a string: String message = "Welcome to Java";

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Fifth Edition, (c) 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Strings Are Immutable A String object is immutable; its contents cannot be changed. Does the following code change the contents of the string? String s = "Java"; s = "HTML";

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Fifth Edition, (c) 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Canonical Strings Since strings are immutable, to improve efficiency and save memory, the JVM stores two String objects in the same object if they were created with the same string literal using the shorthand initializer. Such a string is referred to as a canonical string. You can also use a String object ’ s intern method to return a canonical string, which is the same string that is created using the shorthand initializer.

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Fifth Edition, (c) 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Finding String Length Finding string length using the length() method: message = "Welcome"; message.length() (returns 7 )

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Fifth Edition, (c) 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Retrieving Individual Characters in a String Do not use message[0] Use message.charAt(index) Index starts from 0

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Fifth Edition, (c) 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved String Concatenation String s3 = s1.concat(s2); String s3 = s1 + s2; s1 + s2 + s3 + s4 + s5 same as (((s1.concat(s2)).concat(s3)).concat(s4)).concat(s 5);

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Fifth Edition, (c) 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Extracting Substrings String is an immutable class; its values cannot be changed individually. String s1 = "Welcome to Java"; String s2 = s1.substring(0, 11) + "HTML";

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Fifth Edition, (c) 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved String Comparisons equals String s1 = new String("Welcome“); String s2 = "welcome"; if (s1.equals(s2)){ // s1 and s2 have the same contents } if (s1 == s2) { // s1 and s2 have the same reference }

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Fifth Edition, (c) 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved String Comparisons, cont. compareTo(Object object) String s1 = new String("Welcome“); String s2 = "welcome"; if (s1.compareTo(s2) > 0) { // s1 is greater than s2 } else if (s1.compareTo(s2) == 0) { // s1 and s2 have the same contents } else // s1 is less than s2

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Fifth Edition, (c) 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved String Conversions The contents of a string cannot be changed once the string is created. But you can convert a string to a new string using the following methods: toLowerCase toUpperCase trim replace(oldChar, newChar)

Liang, Introduction to Java Programming, Fifth Edition, (c) 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Finding a Character or a Substring in a String "Welcome to Java".indexOf('W') returns 0. "Welcome to Java".indexOf('x') returns -1. "Welcome to Java".indexOf('o', 5) returns 9. "Welcome to Java".indexOf("come") returns 3. "Welcome to Java".indexOf("Java", 5) returns 11. "Welcome to Java".indexOf("java", 5) returns -1. "Welcome to Java".lastIndexOf('a') returns 14.
