Compare strings example
In this section, you will learn how to compare two
strings in java. The java lang package provides a method to compare two
with their case either upper and lower. The equals()
method provides the facility of comparing the two strings. The following
program uses the equals() method and helps you to compare the two strings. If
both strings are equal, it will display a message "The given strings are
equal" otherwise it will show "The given string are not equal".
Description of code:
equals():
This is the method that compares an object values and returns Boolean type
value either 'true' or 'false'. If it returns 'true' for the both
objects, it will be equal otherwise not.
Here is the code of program:
import java.lang.*;
import java.io.*;
public class CompString{
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{
System.out.println("String equals or not example!");
BufferedReader bf = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("Please enter first string:");
String str1 = bf.readLine();
System.out.println("Please enter second string:");
String str2 = bf.readLine();
if (str1.equals(str2)){
System.out.println("The given string is equals");
}
else{
System.out.println("The given string is not equals");
}
}
}
