Introduction
In Java, a string is a collection of characters linked together by double quotations. Strings are extremely important in Java, and Java programmers utilize them frequently. Therefore, it is critical for Java developers to have a thorough understanding of the String class in order to properly use it. In this post, we'll look at some of the most significant use of Java String.
A string is not immutable, meaning it cannot be changed once a string has been created. This is something Java programmers should be aware of. If the programmer attempts to change the string's content, a new String will be created (Kawachiya & Onodera, 2018). To put it another way, Strings do not enable new material to be added to an existing String, nor can they alter a String's functions.
A separate String pool is used to keep track of strings. The string pool is a specific memory region in Java memory. When a developer constructs a String object with a String literal, the Java Virtual Machine first examines the String pool for similar features. If it detects any, it returns that string rather than creating a new one. However, if the developer uses the new operator to construct an object, the Java Virtual Machine ignores the Strin...
