Java/Data Type/String substring
Содержание
- 1 Check if String Contains another String
- 2 Counts how many times the substring appears in the larger String.
- 3 Count the number of instances of substring within a string
- 4 Find the first index of any of a set of potential substrings.
- 5 Find the latest index of any of a set of potential substrings.
- 6 Gets a substring from the specified String avoiding exceptions
- 7 Gets len characters from the middle of a String.
- 8 Gets the String that is nested in between two instances of the same String.
- 9 Gets the String that is nested in between two Strings. Only the first match is returned.
- 10 Gets the substring after the first occurrence of a separator. The separator is not returned.
- 11 Gets the substring after the last occurrence of a separator. The separator is not returned.
- 12 Gets the substring before the first occurrence of a separator. The separator is not returned.
- 13 Gets the substring before the last occurrence of a separator. The separator is not returned.
- 14 Getting a substring from a String
- 15 Last occurrence of a substring
- 16 Overlays part of a String with another String.
- 17 Remove a character at a specified position using String.substring
- 18 Return a slice (substring) of the passed in value, optionally trimmed.
- 19 SubString Demo
- 20 Substrings First occurrence
- 21 uses substrings to replace all the vowels in a string entered by the user with asterisks:
