How to find string starts word in java?

Anonymous User 2144 17 Oct 2014

Example: This is my string,

String sample = "random";

If the first character of the string contains 's' or 'p' or 'r' means i should remove the character,Otherwise i have to return the original string.

Is there any optimized way to do that like "regex" or "StringUtils" in apache common?

Why do you want to add 3rd party jar for this kind of simple requirement? You can try as follows


String sample = "random";
if(sample.startsWith("s")||sample.startsWith("r")||sample.startsWith("p")){
  // do necessary 
}else{
  // do necessary 
}
