Question

Describe the purpose of the following function with its syntax:

startWith()

Answer 1

This function returns a boolean value. It is case-sensitive. It returns true when a provided string is used as a prefix to another string and false otherwise. 

Example1: 

String s1 = "Monopoly";
String s2 = "Mono"; 
System.out.println(s1.starts With(s2)); 

Output: true 

Example2: 

String s1 = "Monopoly";
String s2 = "mono"; 
System.out.println(s1.startsWith(s2)); 

Output: false 

(since it is case-sensitive)
