Java Strings Presentation

Strings in Java are immutable objects that represent a sequence of characters and are widely used for text handling. They can be created using string literals or the 'new' keyword, and Java provides various methods for string manipulation, comparison, and concatenation. Understanding these concepts is essential for effective Java programming.

Java Strings

An Introduction to Strings in Java


What is a String?
• • A String in Java is an object that represents a
sequence of characters.
• • Strings are immutable, meaning their values
cannot be changed after creation.
• • Strings are widely used in Java programming
to handle text.
Creating Strings
• • Using String Literals:
• String str = "Hello";

• • Using the 'new' Keyword:


• String str = new String("Hello");
Common String Methods
• • length(): Returns the length of the string.
• Example: str.length();

• • charAt(index): Returns the character at the


specified index.
• Example: str.charAt(0);

• • substring(start, end): Extracts a substring.


• Example: str.substring(0, 5);
String Comparison
• • equals(): Compares the content of two
strings.
• Example: str1.equals(str2);

• • equalsIgnoreCase(): Compares strings


ignoring case.
• Example: str1.equalsIgnoreCase(str2);

• • compareTo(): Compares strings


String Concatenation
• • Using the '+' Operator:
• String result = str1 + str2;

• • Using concat() Method:


• String result = str1.concat(str2);
String Immutability
• • Strings in Java are immutable.
• • Once a string is created, it cannot be
modified.
• • Any operation on a string creates a new
string object.
Summary
• • Strings are an essential part of Java
programming.
• • Strings are immutable objects.
• • Java provides various methods to
manipulate and compare strings.
