The
find()method of
Matcher Classattempts 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 valueshowing 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());
}
}
