In this gist, i will try to explain you what is the main differences between known string comparison techniques and where to use them.
This is the main equality operator in Java. To summarize it, this method compares the left and right hands references to eachother and returns boolean. This means this operator returns true only if left and right variable both point at the same Object in the memory. As in most of the class comparisons, this operators is discouraged to use if you're not really intented to check if two variables point to same object.
