How does this code work? How to know what non zero output it gives?

Question

public static void main(String[] args) {
String a = "hi";
String b = "hi";
int x = a.compareTo(b);
System.out.println(x);
// returns a 0 value if both strings are the same else give non zero input
}
}

Answer 1

Hello!
Method compareTo returns 0 because your strings are equal.
