Substring in Java

A part of string is called substring. In other words, substring is a subset of another string. In case of substring startIndex is inclusive and endIndex is exclusive. Note: Index starts from 0. You can get substring from the given string object by one of the two methods: public String substring(int startIndex): This method returns new String object containing the substring of the given string from specified startIndex (inclusive). public String substring(int startIndex, int endIndex): This method returns new String object containing the substring of the given string from specified startIndex to endIndex. In case of string: startIndex: inclusive endIndex: exclusive Let's understand the startIndex and endIndex by the code given below. String s="hello";   System.out.println(s.substring(0,2));//he   In the above substring, 0 points to h but 2 points to e (because end index is exclusive). Example of java substring public class TestSubstring{    public static void main(String args[]){      String s="Sachin Tendulkar";      System.out.println(s.substring(6));//Tendulkar      System.out.println(s.substring(0,6));//Sachin    }   }   Tendulkar Sachin
