Java : String with Examples
String (Java SE 22 & JDK 22) with Examples.
You will find code examples on most String methods.
Summary
The String class represents character strings. All string literals in Java programs, such as "abc", are implemented as instances of this class.
final var s = "abcd";
System.out.println(s); // "abcd"
final var upper = s.toUpperCase();
System.out.println(upper); // "ABCD"
// An example with a surrogate code point.
final var surrogate = "\uD83D\uDE0A"; // "😊" is one character.
System.out.println(surrogate); // "😊"
System.out.println(surrogate.length()); // 2
final var chars = surrogate.chars().toArray();
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(chars)); // [55357, 56842]
final var codePoints = surrogate.codePoints().toArray();
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(codePoints)); // [128522]
Fields
static final Comparator<String> CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER
A Comparator that orders String objects as by compareToIgnoreCase.
final var list = new ArrayList<String>();
list.add("Tree");
list.add("book");
list.add("stone");

System.out.println(list); // [Tree, book, stone, Cake]
list.sort(Comparator.naturalOrder());
System.out.println(list); // [Cake, Tree, book, stone]
list.sort(String.CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER);
System.out.println(list); // [book, Cake, stone, Tree]
final var list = new ArrayList<String>();
list.add("D");
