Strings

 // This program demonstrates string functions.
 
 class Main {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
         String str = "Hello";
 
         System.out.println("string: " + str);
         System.out.println("string.toLowerCase(): " + str.toLowerCase());
         System.out.println("string.toUpperCase(): " + str.toUpperCase());
         System.out.println("string.indexOf('e'): " + str.indexOf('e'));
         System.out.println("string.length(): " + str.length());
         System.out.println("string.replace('H', 'j'): " + str.replace('H', 'j'));
         System.out.println("string(substring(2,4): " + str.substring(2, 4));
         System.out.println("string.trim(): " + str.trim());
 
         String name = "Bob";
         double value = 123.456;
         System.out.println(String.format("%s earned $%.2f", name, value));
     }
 }

Output

string: Hello
string..toLowerCase(): hello
string.toUpperCase(): HELLO
string.indexOf('e'): 1
string.length(): 5
string.replace('H', 'j'): jello
string(substring(2,4): ll
string.trim(): Hello
Bob earned $123.46

Files

 // This program creates a file, adds data to the file, displays the file,
 // appends more data to the file, displays the file, and then deletes the file.
 // It will not run if the file already exists.
