In this article, we will understand how to differentiate == operator and equals() method in Java. The == (equal to) operator checks if the values of two operands are equal or not, if yes then the condition becomes true. The equals() method compares this 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. Below is a demonstration of the same − Suppose our input is − The first string: abcde The second string: 12345 The ... Read More

In this article, we will understand how to remove a sub-list from a list. A list is an ordered collection that allows us to store and access elements sequentially. It contains the index-based methods to insert, update, delete and search the elements. It can also have the duplicate elements.Below is a demonstration of the same −Suppose our input is −Input list: [Java, Programming, Is, Fun]The desired output would be −The list after removing a sublist is: [Java, Programming]AlgorithmStep 1 - START Step 2 - Declare an AbstractList namely input_list. Step 3 - Add the values to the list. Step 4 ... Read More

In this article, we will understand how to iterate through each character of the string using Java. The string is a datatype that contains one or more characters and is enclosed in double quotes (“ ”). Char is a datatype that contains an alphabet an integer or a special character. Problem Statement Write a program to Iterate through each character of the string. Below is a demonstration of the same − Input The string is defined as: Java Program Output The characters in the string are: J, a, v, a, , P, r, o, g, r, a, m, Different approaches ... Read More

A string is a class of 'java.lang' package that stores a series of characters. Those characters are actually String-type objects. We must enclose the value of string within double quotes. Generally, we can represent characters in lowercase and uppercase in Java. And, it is also possible to convert lowercase characters into uppercase. This article aims to discuss a Java program to convert the first character of each word into uppercase in a string. Java program to Capitalize the first character of each word in a String Before making a Java program to convert the first lowercase character of a ... Read More

On clearing the StringBuffer object, all the characters from the buffer will be removed. In this article, we will write Java program to clear the StringBuffer. StringBuffer is a peer class of String that provides much of the functionality of strings. But, String represents fixed-length, immutable character sequences while StringBuffer represents mutable character sequences. Example Scenario: Input: obj = Java Program Output: res = The result will be an empty StringBuffer object. Using delete() method The StringBuffer class of java.lang package provides a method named delete() to clear the StringBuffer. This method accepts start and end indices ... Read More

In this article, we will understand how to create random strings. String is a datatype that contains one or more characters and is enclosed in double quotes(“ ”).Below is a demonstration of the same −Suppose our input is −The size of the string is defined as: 10The desired output would be −Random string: ink1n1dodvAlgorithmStep 1 - START Step 2 - Declare an integer namely string_size, a string namely alpha_numeric and an object of StringBuilder namely string_builder. Step 3 - Define the values. Step 4 - Iterate for 10 times usinf a for-loop, generate a random value using the function Math.random() ... Read More

In this article, we will understand how to split a list into two halves. A list is an ordered collection that allows us to store and access elements sequentially. It contains index-based methods to insert, update, delete, and search the elements. It can also have duplicate elements. We will be using different approaches to split a list into two halves − Problem Statement Write a Java program to split a list into two halves. As demonstrated below − Input  Input list :[Java, Python, JavaScript, Shell, Scala] Output The first half of the list is: [Java, Python] The second half of ... Read More

Suppose we have an array A with n elements and have another value t. On ith day Amal spends A[i] seconds in work. In the free time he reads a book. The entire book will take t seconds to complete. We have to find how many days he will need to read the complete book.So, if the input is like A = [86400, 86398]; t = 2, then the output will be 2, because one day has 86400 seconds, and first day is totally blocked. On second day he will get 2 seconds to complete the book.StepsTo solve this, we ... Read More

In this article, we will understand how to splitting into a number of sub-strings. String is a datatype that contains one or more characters and is enclosed in double quotes(“ ”). A part or a subset of string is called substring.Below is a demonstration of the same −Suppose our input is −Input string: JVMThe desired output would be −The substring list printed as an ArrayList : [J, JV, JVM, V, VM, M] The sub-strings after splitting is: (1) "J" (2) "JV" (3) "JVM" (4) "V" (5) "VM" (6) "M"AlgorithmStep 1 - START Step 2 - Declare a string namely ...

Extrema are such numbers which are either minima or maxima. In other words, it is a number or element which is either greater than or less than both of its adjacent values. Suppose we have an array A with n elements. An element of this array A[i] is called a local minimum if and only if it is strictly less than both of its neighbours. Also if it is strictly greater than its neighbours it will be local maximum. For A[0] and A[n-1] as there are only one neighbour they are not maxima or minima. We have to find the ... Read More
