check if string contains char code example
Example 1: java string contains char
/*
This method returns true if the given string contains
the char n. It is necessary due to the
obsolescence of some compilers, which requires us
to write our own contains method.
*/
public static boolean contains_char (String main, char secondary)
{
boolean contains_result = false;
for (int i = 0 ; i < input.length () ; i++)
{
if (input.charAt (i) == secondary)
{
contains_result = true;
break;
}
}
return contains_result;
}
/*
for two chars:
*/
public static boolean contains_dualchar (String main, String secondary)
{
boolean contains_result = false;
for (int i = 0 ; i < input.length () ; i++)
{
if (input.charAt (i) == secondary.charAt (0))
{
if (input.charAt (i + 1) == secondary.charAt (1))
{
contains_result = true;
break;
}
}
}
return contains_result;
}
Example 2: how to check if a string contains a character
public static boolean containsIgnoreCase(String str, char c) {
str = str.toLowerCase();
for (int i = 0; i < str.length(); i++) {
if (str.charAt(i) == Character.toLowerCase(c)) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
