Java String equals() method example.
The equals() method of the String class accepts a String as a parameter and it compares the current string to the specified object. The result is true if and only if the argument is not null and is a String object that represents the same sequence of characters as this object.
Example
import java.lang.*; public class StringDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { String str1 = new String("sachin tendulkar"); String str2 = new String("amrood admin"); String str3 = new String("amrood admin"); // checking for equality boolean retval1 = str2.equals(str1); boolean retval2 = str2.equals(str3); // prints the return value System.out.println("str2 is equal to str1 = " + retval1); System.out.println("str2 is equal to str3 = " + retval2); } }
Output
str2 is equal to str1 = false str2 is equal to str3 = true
