Java Search String Example
This example shows how we can search a word within a String object using
indexOf method.

To search a particular word in a given string use indexOf method.
indexOf method. It returns a position index of a word within the string
if found. Otherwise it returns -1.
*/
int intIndex = strOrig.indexOf("Hello");
if(intIndex == - 1){
System.out.println("Hello not found");
}else{
System.out.println("Found Hello at index " + intIndex);

/*
we can also search a word after particular position using
indexOf(String word, int position) method.
*/
int positionIndex = strOrig.indexOf("Hello",11);
System.out.println("Index of Hello after 11 is " + positionIndex);
/*
Use lastIndexOf method to search a last occurrence of a word within string.
*/
int lastIndex = strOrig.lastIndexOf("Hello");
System.out.println("Last occurrence of Hello is at index " + lastIndex);

}
/*
Output of the program would be :
Found Hello at index 0
Index of Hello after 11 is 12
Last occurrence of Hello is at index 12
