字符串,被广泛使用在Java编程中,一个字符序列。在Java编程语言中,字符串是对象。
Java平台提供了创建和操作字符串String类。
最直接的方法来创建一个字符串是这样写:
String greeting = "Hello world!";
每当遇到一个字符串文字在你的代码中,编译器会创建一个String对象,它的值在本例中,“你好,世界!”。
任何其他对象,可以创建String对象使用new关键字和构造。 String类有11构造函数,可以提供不同的来源,如一个字符数组,字符串使用的初始值:
public class StringDemo{ public static void main(String args[]){ char[] helloArray = { 'h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', '.'}; String helloString = new String(helloArray); System.out.println( helloString ); } }
这将产生以下结果:
hello
Note: The String class is immutable, so that once it is created a String object cannot be changed. If there is a necessity to make alot of modifications to Strings of characters then you should use String Buffer & String Builder Classes.
被称为访问器方法使用的方法,以获得有关对象的信息。一个访问方法,可以使用字符串的 length() 方法,该方法返回String对象中包含的字符数。
在下面的两行代码被执行了,长度等于17:
public class StringDemo{ public static void main(String args[]){ String palindrome = "Dot saw I was Tod"; int len = palindrome.length(); System.out.println( "String Length is : " + len ); } }
这将产生以下结果:
String Length is : 17
String类包括连接两个字符串的方法:
string1.concat(string2);
This returns a new string that is string1 with string2 added to it at the end. You can also use the concat() method with string literals, as in:
"My name is ".concat("Zara");
Strings are more commonly concatenated with the + operator, as in:
"Hello," + " world" + "!"
which results in:
"Hello, world!"
Let us look at the followinge example:
public class StringDemo{ public static void main(String args[]){ String string1 = "saw I was "; System.out.println("Dot " + string1 + "Tod"); } }
This would produce following result:
Dot saw I was Tod
printf()和format()方法来打印输出格式的数字。 String类有一个等价类的方法,format(),该函数返回一个String对象,而不是一个PrintStream对象。
使用String的静态format()方法允许你创建一个格式化字符串,可以重复使用,而不是一次性打印语句。例如:
System.out.printf("The value of the float variable is " + "%f, while the value of the integer " + "variable is %d, and the string " + "is %s", floatVar, intVar, stringVar);
you can write:
String fs; fs = String.format("The value of the float variable is " + "%f, while the value of the integer " + "variable is %d, and the string " + "is %s", floatVar, intVar, stringVar); System.out.println(fs);
