Below examples illustrate the MatchResult.end() method:
Example 1:
import java.util.regex.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
String regex = "(G*s)";
Pattern pattern
= Pattern.compile(regex);
String stringToBeMatched
= "GeeksForGeeks";
MatchResult matcher
= pattern
.matcher(stringToBeMatched);
while (((Matcher)matcher).find()) {
System.out.println(matcher.end(1));
}
}
}
