Matcher find() method in Java with Examples

Last Updated : 26 Nov, 2018

The

find()

method of

Matcher Class

attempts to find the next subsequence of the input sequence that find the pattern. It returns a boolean value showing the same.

Syntax:
public boolean find()
Parameters:

This method do not takes any parameter.

Return Value:

This method returns a

boolean value

showing whether a subsequence of the input sequence find this matcher's pattern Below examples illustrate the Matcher.find() method:

Example 1: Java
// Java code to illustrate find() method

import java.util.regex.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // Get the regex to be checked
        String regex = "Geeks";

        // Create a pattern from regex
        Pattern pattern
            = Pattern.compile(regex);

        // Get the String to be matched
        String stringToBeMatched
            = "GeeksForGeeks";

        // Create a matcher for the input String
        Matcher matcher
            = pattern
                  .matcher(stringToBeMatched);

        // Get the subsequence
        // using find() method
        System.out.println(matcher.find());
    }
}
Example 2: Java
// Java code to illustrate find() method

import java.util.regex.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // Get the regex to be checked
        String regex = "GFG";

        // Create a pattern from regex
        Pattern pattern
            = Pattern.compile(regex);

        // Get the String to be matched
        String stringToBeMatched
            = "GFGFGFGFGFGFGFGFGFG";

        // Create a matcher for the input String
        Matcher matcher
            = pattern
                  .matcher(stringToBeMatched);

        // Get the subsequence
        // using find() method
        System.out.println(matcher.find());
    }
}
