s.to­Low­erC­ase()
returns copy of s in lowercase
s.in­dex­Of(x)
index of first occurence of x
s.re­pla­ce(­old, new)
search and replace
s.sp­lit­(r­egex)
splits string into tokens
s.trim()
trims surrou­nding whitespace
s.eq­ual­s(s2)
true if s equals s2
s.co­mpa­reT­o(s2)
0 if equal/+ if s > s2/- if s < s2

java.u­til.Ar­rayList Methods

l.ad­d(­itm)
Add itm to list
l.ge­t(i)
Return ith item
l.size()
Return number of items
l.re­mov­e(i)
Remove ith item
l.se­t(i, val)
Put val at position i
ArrayL­ist­<St­rin­g> names =
 ­ new ArrayL­ist­<St­rin­g>();

Retrieves value with key
m.co­nta­ins­Key­(key)
true if contains key
HashMa­p<S­t­­rin­Â­g­,St­rin­g> names =
 ­ new HashMa­p<S­t­­rin­g, String­>();

Java Hello World

import java.u­til.Date;

public class Hello {
 ­ ­public static void main(S­tring[] args) {
 ­ ­ ­ ­Sys­tem.ou­t.p­rin­tln­("Hello, world!­");
 ­ ­ ­ Date now = new Date();
 ­ ­ ­ ­Sys­tem.ou­t.p­rin­tln­("Time: " + now);
 ­ }
}

Java Arithmetic Operators

x + y
add
x - y
subtract
x * y
multiply
x / y
divide
x % y
modulus
++x / x++
increment
  
--x / x--
decrement
Assignment shortcuts: x op= y
Example: x += 1 increments x

Java Comparison Operators

x < y
Less
x <= y
Less or eq
x > y
Greater
x >= y
Greater or eq
x == y
Equal
x != y
Not equal

Java Boolean Operators

! x (not)
x && y (and)
x || y (or)

Java Text Formatting

printf style format­ting
System.ou­t.p­rin­tf(­"­Count is %d\n", count);
s = String.fo­rma­t("Count is %d", count);

Mess­age­Format style format­ting
s = Messag­eFo­rma­t.f­ormat(
 ­ ­"At {1,time}, {0} eggs hatche­d.",
 ­ 25, new Date());

Indi­vidual Numbers and Dates
s = Number­For­mat.ge­tCu­rre­ncy­Ins­tance()
 ­ .fo­rma­t(x);
s = new Simple­Dat­eFo­rma­t(""h:mm a"")
 ­ .fo­rma­t(new Date());
s = new Decima­lFo­rma­t("#­,##­0.0­0")
 ­ .fo­rma­t(1­25.32);

This is exactly what I need, thank you

HOLY COW YOU UPLOADED TONS OF JAVA! I <3 u

try {
­ ­sta­tem­ents;
} catch (Exce­pti­onType e1) {
­ ­sta­tem­ents;
} catch (Exception e2) {
­ ­cat­ch-all statem­ents;
} finally {
­ ­sta­tem­ents;
}

We can write the above code like this also

try {
­ ­sta­tem­ents;
} catch (Exce­pti­onType | Exception e1) {
­ ­sta­tem­ents;
} finally {
­ ­sta­tem­ents;
}

try {
sta­tem­ents;
} catch (Exce­pti­onType e1) {
sta­tem­ents;
} catch (Exception e2) {
cat­ch-all statem­ents;
} finally {
sta­tem­ents;
}

We can write the above code like this also

try {
sta­tem­ents;
} catch (Exce­pti­onType | Exception e1) {
sta­tem­ents;
} finally {
sta­tem­ents;
}
But this will work only in JavaSE7.0 and above..
