Why this codes outputs false?

Question

String s = new String("Panda");
String a = "Panda";
System.out.print(s==a);

Answer 1

the code is comparing 2 different objects and they have its own identity, you must use equals()

Answer 2

In Java == does not Check if a string is equal to another, but if the object is. to make the code work use System.out.println(s.equals(a));
.equals() checks if the content of two strings is the same :)

Answer 3

== does compare the reference, which is not the same as tue value which you want to compare.

Answer 4

/*This is what you want if you want to compare 2 strings or true/false*/

String s = "Panda";
String a = "Panda";

if(s == "Panda" || a == "Panda"){

System.out.println(s);}

/*output panda*/

String s = "Panda";
String a = "Panda";

System.out.printlin(s==a);

/*output true*/

Answer 5

public static void main(String[ ] args) {
Animal a1 = new Animal("Robby");
Animal a2 = new Animal("Robby");
System.out.println(a1.equals(a2));
}
//Outputs true

Answer 6

But I have instantiated both as "Panda".
