To join strings in Java, use the String.join() method. The delimiter set as the first parameter in the method is copied for each element.Let’s say we want to join the strings “Demo” and “Text”. With that, we want to set a delimeter $. For that, use the join() method as shown below −String.join("$","Demo","Text");The following is an example.Example Live Demopublic class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       String str = String.join("$","Demo","Text");       System.out.println("Joined strings: "+str);    } }OutputJoined strings: Demo$Text

For a given string, say "str", write a Java program to check if it contains each character from a specified character array. If it contains print "found" otherwise "not found". A String in Java is a class that represents a contiguous block of characters. Example Scenario: Input 1: String str = "pqrst"; Input 2: char[] chSearch = {'p', 'q', r'}; Output: res = Character p, q and r found in given string In the string "pqrst", we are searching for the character set {'p', 'q', r'}. Using Iteration Here, use for loop to iterate till the length of the ... Read More

In this article, we will learn to check if the string contains any character in the given set of characters in Java. We will iterate over the string and compare each character to a set of characters that we want to search for. If any match is found, the program will print the character and confirm that it is present in the string. Problem Statement Write a program in Java to check if the string contains any character in the given set of characters − Input str = abcde chSearch = 'b', 'c' Output Character b found in string abcde ...

Let’s say the following is our string.String myStr = "";Now, we will check whether the above string is whitespace, empty ("") or null.if(myStr != null && !myStr.isEmpty() && !myStr.trim().isEmpty()) {    System.out.println("String is not null or not empty or not whitespace"); } else {    System.out.println("String is null or empty or whitespace"); }The following is an example that checks for an empty string.Example Live Demopublic class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       String myStr = "";       if(myStr != null && !myStr.isEmpty() && !myStr.trim().isEmpty()) {          System.out.println("String is not null ...

To remove newline, space and tab characters from a string, replace them with empty as shown below.replaceAll("[\t ]", "");Above, the new line, tab, and space will get replaced with empty, since we have used replaceAll()The following is the complete example.Example Live Demopublic class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       String originalStr = "Demo\tText";       System.out.println("Original String with tabs, spaces and newline: "+originalStr);       originalStr = originalStr.replaceAll("[\t ]", "");       System.out.println("String after removing tabs, spaces and new line: "+originalStr);    } }OutputOriginal String with tabs, spaces and newline: Demo Text ...

The MMMM format for months is like entire month name: January, February, March, etc. We will use it like this.SimpleDateFormat("MMM");Let us see an example.// displaying month in MMMM format SimpleDateFormat simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("MMMM"); String strMonth= simpleformat.format(new Date()); System.out.println("Month in MMMM format = "+strMonth);Above, we have used the SimpleDateFormat class, therefore the following package is imported.import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;The following is an example.Example Live Demoimport java.text.Format; import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; import java.util.Date; import java.util.Calendar; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {       // displaying current date and time       Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();     ...

The MMM format for months is the short name i.e. Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, etc. Here, we will use the following.SimpleDateFormat("MMM");Let us see an example.// displaying month in MMM format SimpleDateFormat simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("MMM"); String strMonth= simpleformat.format(new Date()); System.out.println("Month in MMM format = "+strMonth);Above, we have used the SimpleDateFormat class, therefore the following package is imported.import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;The following is an example.Example Live Demoimport java.text.Format; import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; import java.util.Date; import java.util.Calendar; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {       // displaying current date and time       Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();   ...

The following is our string.String str = "Jack";Now take a StringBuilder object.StringBuilder strBuilder = new StringBuilder();Perform left padding and extend the string length to 20. The string that will be padded comes on the left.while (strBuilder.length() + str.length() < 20) { strBuilder.append("demo"); }The following is an example wherein we have left padded a string with another string “demo”Example Live Demopublic class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       String str = "Jack";       StringBuilder strBuilder = new StringBuilder();       // left padding with a string       while (strBuilder.length() + str.length() ...

Strings have no newlines. We can form them into two lines by concatenating a newline string. Use System lineSeparator to get a platform-dependent newline string.The following is an example.Example Live Demopublic class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       String str = "one" + System.lineSeparator() + "two";       System.out.println(str);    } }Outputone twoLet us see another example. On Linux based system, the program will work correctly.Example Live Demopublic class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       String str = System.lineSeparator();       System.out.println((int) str.charAt(0));    } }Output10

To format a string, use the String.format() method in Java. The following is an example that formats a string %s.Example Live Demopublic class Demo {    public static void main(String []args) {       String str = String.format("%s %s", "demo", "text");       System.out.print("String: "+str);    } }OutputString: demo textLeft pad a stringTo left pad a string, use the String.format and set the spaces.String.format("|%20s|", "demotext")If you add 30 above, it will display the first string after 30 spaces from the beginning.String.format("|%30s|", "demotext")The following is an example.Example Live Demopublic class Demo {    public static void main(String []args) {     ...
