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 particular 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.

concat method:

  • It returns a copy of calling string object with contents of given string concatenated to it.
  • It performs same operation as “+” operator while used with strings.
  • It returns a string with value of string passed into method, appended to end of string.
  • It appends one string to another string’s end.
