Character.equals() method in Java with examples

Last Updated : 06 Dec, 2018

The

is a function in Java which compares this object against the specified object. If the argument is not null then the result is true and is a Character object that represents the same char value as this object.

public boolean equals(Object obj)

The function accepts a single parameter

which specifies the object to be compared with.

The function returns a boolean value. It returns true if the objects are same, otherwise, it returns false. Below programs illustrates the above method:

// Java program to demonstrate the function
// Character.equals() when two objects are same
import java.lang.*;

public class gfg {

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // assign values to c1, c2
        Character c1 = new Character('Z');
        Character c2 = new Character('Z');

        // assign the result of equals method on c1, c2 to res
        boolean res = c1.equals(c2);

        // print res value
        System.out.println(c1 + " and " + c2 + " are equal is " + res);
    }
}

Z and Z are equal is true

// Java program to demonstrate function
// when two objects are different

import java.lang.*;

public class gfg {

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // assign values to c1, c2
        Character c1 = new Character('a');
        Character c2 = new Character('A');

        // assign the result of equals
        // method on c1, c2 to res
        boolean res = c1.equals(c2);

        // prints the res value
        System.out.println(c1 + " and " + c2 + " are equal is " + res);
    }
}

a and A are equal is false
