IDI Course JAV-15
String Handling in Java

Java's standard String and StringBuffer classes provide some but hardly all the functionality a programmer needs to manipulate character strings effectively. JAV-15 examines ways of exploiting those classes and, where necessary, supplementing them with others to develop programs that are:

• efficient,
• maintainable, and
• user-friendly

If time permits, we'll briefly examine Java's support of non-European alphabets and discuss the challenge of internationalizing an application or a program component.

Length:

2 half-day sessions
