Examples of String endsWith() in Java
Example 1: Java Program to show the working of endsWith() method
Java
// Java program to demonstrate// working of endsWith() methodÂ
// Driver Classclass Gfg1 {    // main function    public static void main(String args[])    {        String s = "Welcome! to Lazyroar";Â
        // Output will be true as s ends with Geeks        boolean gfg1 = s.endsWith("Geeks");        System.out.println(gfg1);    }} |
Output
true
Example 2:
Java
// Java program to demonstrate// working of endsWith() methodÂ
// Driver classclass Gfg2 {    // main function    public static void main(String args[])    {        String s = "Welcome! to Lazyroar";Â
        // Output will be false as s does not        // end with "for"        boolean gfg2 = s.endsWith("for");Â
        System.out.println(gfg2);    }} |
Output
false
Example 3:
Java
// Java program to demonstrate// working of endsWith() methodÂ
// Driver Classclass Gfg3 {    // main function    public static void main(String args[])    {        String s = "Welcome! to Lazyroar";Â
        // Output will be true if the argument        // is the empty string        boolean gfg3 = s.endsWith("");Â
        System.out.println(gfg3);    }} |
Output
true
Example 4: Java Program to check if the string ends with empty space at the end.
Java
// Java program to demonstrate// working of endsWith() methodÂ
// Driver Classclass Gfg3 {    // main function    public static void main(String args[])    {        String s = "Welcome! to Lazyroar";Â
        // Output will be true if the argument        // is the empty stringÂ
        boolean gfg4 = s.endsWith(" ");        System.out.println(gfg4);    }} |
Output
false
Example 5: Java Program to show the NullPointerException when we pass null as the parameters to endsWith()
Java
// Java program to demonstrate// working of endsWith() methodÂ
// Driver Classclass Gfg3 {    // main function    public static void main(String args[])    {        String s = "Welcome! to Lazyroar";Â
        // Output will be true if the argument        // is the empty string        boolean gfg3 = s.endsWith(null);Â
        System.out.println(gfg3);    }} |
Output
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at java.base/java.lang.String.endsWith(String.java:1485)
at Gfg3.main(Gfg3.java:13)
