Java Strings Mastery
Arrays are fundamental data structures in computer science and serve as building blocks for complex ones.
How Strings Are Used In Collections?
Strings are often used as keys in various data structures in Java, such as HashMap, TreeMap, and HashSet. Understanding how strings work with these data structures is important for efficient and correct programming. Let's explore how strings are used in these data structures, how comparison and hash codes
StringBuilder vs. StringBuffer, Thread Safety
Thread Safety with StringBuffer When working with strings in Java, you might encounter situations where multiple threads need to modify a string simultaneously. In such cases, you need to ensure that your string manipulation is safe and does not lead to unexpected results or errors. StringBuffer is a class designed
Performance Comparison Of StringBuilder vs. String Concatenation
When working with strings in Java, the way you handle concatenation can significantly impact performance, especially if you are performing many operations. Let's compare the performance between using regular string concatenation and StringBuilder to understand which approach is more efficient and why. String Concatenation In Java, string concatenation
String, StringBuilder, and StringBuffer in Java
Efficient String Manipulation with StringBuilder When working with strings in Java, performance can be a concern, especially when you need to make frequent changes to a string, like appending or inserting characters. This is where StringBuilder comes in handy. It’s designed to be more efficient than using regular strings
Understanding String Immutability
What is String Immutability? In Java, strings are immutable. This means once a String object is created, it cannot be changed. If you try to modify a string, a new string object is created instead. Why Are Strings Immutable? 1. Security: Immutability helps in making strings safe for use in
Number Formatting in Java
When working with numbers in Java, there are times when you want to display them in a more human-readable or specific format, like adding commas, displaying a certain number of decimal places, or showing currency symbols. Java provides two powerful tools for this: NumberFormat and DecimalFormat. These tools make it
Parsing Strings To Primitive Types in Java
Sometimes, we will have a string that represents a number, and you need to convert it into a primitive type like int, double, or float to perform calculations or other operations. This process is called parsing. In this section, we’ll learn how to convert strings to primitive types using
String Formatting in Java (%s, %d, %f)
String formatting is a way to create more readable and structured strings by inserting values into a string in a flexible and controlled way. Java provides a useful method called String.format() for this purpose. It allows you to create strings with placeholders and format numbers, text, and other values
Java Strings Trimming, Replacing, and Splitting
When working with strings in Java, many useful methods allow you to clean up, replace parts of, or break down strings into smaller pieces. This lesson will cover how to trim unnecessary spaces, replace characters or patterns, and split strings into parts. We’ll also see how to recombine strings
