Escape sequences in Java

A character preceded by a backslash (\) is an escape sequence and has a special meaning to the compiler.

The following table shows the Java escape sequences.

Escape Sequence	Description
\t	Inserts a tab in the text at this point.
\b	Inserts a backspace in the text at this point.
\n	Inserts a newline in the text at this point.
\r	Inserts a carriage return in the text at this point.
\f	Inserts a form feed in the text at this point.
\'	Inserts a single quote character in the text at this point.
\"	Inserts a double quote character in the text at this point.
\\	Inserts a backslash character in the text at this point.

Let us see an example of Character Escape Sequences in Java.

Exploring Methods of String Class

Introduction String manipulation is arguably one of the most common activities in computer programming. String class has a variety of methods for string manipulation. We will discuss basic methods with examples. public char charAt(int index) This method requires an integer argument that indicates the position of the character that the method returns.This method returns the character located at the String's specified index. Remember, String indexes are zero-based—for example, String x = "airplane"; System.out.println( x.charAt(2) ); // output is 'r' public String concat(String s) This method returns a String with the value of the String passed in to the method appended to the end of the String used to invoke the method—for example, String x = "book"; System.out.println( x.concat(" author") ); // output is "book author" The overloaded + and += operators perform functions similar to the concat()method—for example, String x = "lib...

Java increment & decrement operator

Increment and Decrement Operator in Java : It is one of the variation of “ Arithmetic Operator “. Increment and Decrement Operators are Unary Operators. Unary Operator Operates on One Operand. Increment Operator is Used to Increment Value Stored inside Variable on which it is operating. Decrement Operator is used to decrement value of Variable by 1 (default). Types of Increment and Decrement Operator : Pre Increment / Pre Decrement Operator Post Increment / Post Decrement Operator Syntax : ++ Increment operator : increments a value by 1 -- Decrement operator : decrements a value by 1 Pre-Increment Operator : “++” is written before Variable name. Value is Incremented First and then incremented value is used in expression. “++” cannot be used over “ Constant ” of “ final Variable “. Live Example 1 : Post Incrementing Variable [468×60] class PostIncrement { public static void main ( String args [ ] ) { int num1 = 1 ; int num2 = 1 ; num1 + + ; num2 + +...
