Write a Java program to compare two strings?

A String is a series of characters. In Java, String objects are immutable, which means they are constant and cannot be modified once created.

You can compare two Strings in Java using the compareTo() function, equals() function, or == operator.

Here is a Java program that compares two strings using the equals () method.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class CompareStrings
{
   public static void main(String[] args)
   {
      String str1, str2;
      Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
      
      System.out.print("Enter your First String: ");
      str1 = sc.nextLine();
      System.out.print("Enter the Second String: ");
      str2 = sc.nextLine();
      
      if(str1.equals(str2)) 
       System.out.println("Strings are equal.");
      else
       System.out.println("Strings are not equal.");
   }
}
