Check if string contains Substring

In computer programming, a string is a sequence of characters that are stored as a single data entity. A substring, on the other hand, is a sequence of characters that is contained within a larger string. In other words, a substring is a smaller string that is part of a larger string. The concept of substrings is important in computer programming because it allows developers to manipulate and analyze data in more precise ways. In this article, we will explore the meaning of strings and substrings in greater detail.

A string can be thought of as a sequence of characters that are enclosed within a pair of quotation marks. For example, the string "Hello, World!" contains 13 characters, including spaces and punctuation. Strings are used to represent text data in computer programming, and they are commonly used in applications such as web development, data processing, and text analysis.

Here mentioned some code examples.

/*
    Java Program for
    Check if string contains Substring
*/
public class Substring
{
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		String text = "This is good algorithms to solve this problem";
		// Test A
		String value = "it";
		if (text.contains(value))
		{
			System.out.print(value + " exists\n");
		}
		else
		{
			System.out.print(value + " not exists\n");
		}
		// Test B
		value = "algos";
		if (text.contains(value))
		{
			System.out.print(value + " exists\n");
		}
		else
		{
			System.out.print(value + " not exists\n");
		}
		// Test C
		value = "solve";
		if (text.contains(value))
		{
			System.out.print(value + " exists\n");
		}
		else
		{
			System.out.print(value + " not exists\n");
		}
	}
}

Output

it exists
