Using compareTo and equals method to compare two Strings.

 public class CompareToAndEqual {

    public static void main(String args[]) {

String str1 = "banana";

String str2 = "mango";

String str3 = "banana";

// Using Equals Method

// This method will return boolean value i.e true or false;

System.out.println(str1.equals(str2));

System.out.println(str1.equals(str3));

// Using CompareTo method

// This method will return int value i.e (1,0,-1)

System.out.println(str1.compareTo(str2));

System.out.println(str1.compareTo(str3));

System.out.println(str2.compareTo(str3));

}
