Question about String
hi.. sorry for asking such a noob question.. i am wondering if there anyway in java to give the position of the particular in a String..
eg:
for the word: "Java"
is it possible to say i want to know the position of the letter 'a' in the word.. so for this case it should return 1 and 3...

Look at the API doc for the String class. It has methods that will help you do that.

Re: Question about String
i saw that.. the only methods i can think of that help me is the indexOf method.. but it will only return the 1st occurence.. so for my case the last 'a' will be ignore..
or for case like the word: "Trustworthy"
the other 2 't' will be ignored??
Re: Question about String
There is more than one version of the method.the indexOf method.. but it will only return the 1st occurence
One returns the first occurrence
another will return the next occurrence given a starting point.
