The equals() method of java.text.StringCharacterIterator class in Java is used to check for equality of this StringCharacterIterator with the specified StringCharacterIterator. This method takes a StringCharacterIterator instance and compares it with this StringCharacterIterator and returns a boolean value representing the same.
Syntax:
public boolean equals(Object obj)
Parameter: This method accepts a parameter obj which is the StringCharacterIterator to be checked for equality with this StringCharacterIterator.
Return Value: This method returns an boolean which tells if this StringCharacterIterator is equal to the specified Object.
Exception: This method do not throw any Exception.
Program:
import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
public class StringCharacterIteratorDemo {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
StringCharacterIterator sci1
= new StringCharacterIterator(
"GeeksforGeeks" );
System.out.println( "StringCharacterIterator 1: "
+ sci1);
StringCharacterIterator sci2
= new StringCharacterIterator(
"Geeks for Geeks" );
System.out.println( "StringCharacterIterator 2: "
+ sci2);
StringCharacterIterator sci3
= (StringCharacterIterator)sci1
.clone();
System.out.println( "StringCharacterIterator 3: "
+ sci3);
System.out.println( "Comparing DFS 1 and DFS 2: "
+ sci1.equals(sci2));
System.out.println( "Comparing DFS 2 and DFS 3: "
+ sci2.equals(sci3));
System.out.println( "Comparing DFS 1 and DFS 3: "
+ sci1.equals(sci3));
}
}

Output:
StringCharacterIterator 1: java.text.StringCharacterIterator@bd43b778
StringCharacterIterator 2: java.text.StringCharacterIterator@ac5740a8
StringCharacterIterator 3: java.text.StringCharacterIterator@bd43b778
Comparing DFS 1 and DFS 2: false
Comparing DFS 2 and DFS 3: false
Comparing DFS 1 and DFS 3: true
