(Solved) Can anyone please explain the output of this code?

Question

I am confused as to why the three tests are giving the output that they are doing. Please explain a little bit in depth like how the object is being created and which is being assigned to which, etc.

Answer 1

in test 1, a is created in heap, b in string pool(inside heap)
both are different object , so false
test2, a and b point to string pool, since "SoloLearn" already exist, b will use the same object as a.both are same object so true
test3, both are stored in heap.both are different obj, so false

thats all i know..probably you should read more about string pool/literal

Answer 6

Piyush[21 Dec❤️] In the question, I was referring to the attached code bit.

Answer 7

did you mean why the middle one is true, while other are false?

Answer 8

idk really much about java..but it think using == to compare string will compare the object(same object or not)

Answer 9

the middle is true,cause string object "Sololearn" is already created, so when you try to create a string literal with same string,it will return u that existing string

Answer 10

meanwhile the new operator will create a new string object in the heap..so it is another object even thoug have same string(characters)..thats why it false

Answer 11

if u want to compare the string,use .equals() method instead

Answer 12

Lily Mea Thanks a lot Lily. My doubt is cleared now. I will definitely read up on string pool.

Answer 13

Lily Mea Yes, that's what I meant. Here's a little more info if you want...I was confused as why one time the output was true and the other time it was false. I know that == checks for whether the objects are the same or not. I want to know when two strings created, are the same or different
