Search a word in a String using Java IndexOf


We can search for a word in any String object using indexOf() method which returns the position of the word within the string. If the word or letter is not found then it returns -1.

Class name:  FindTheWord.java
import java.util.*;

public class FindTheWord {
public static void main(String[] args) {  
String strOrig = "Hello world";
     int intIndex = strOrig.indexOf("world");
     if(intIndex == - 1){
        System.out.println("world not found");
     }else{
        System.out.println("Found world at index " + intIndex);
     }
}
}

OUTPUT:
Found world at index 6
