Thread: Why am I getting false ?

I'm following this instruction :
Write a Java program to check if a string starts with a specified word. Go to the editor
Sample Data: string1 = "Hello how are you?"
Sample Output:
true

here is my code :

 String string1 = "Hello how are you"; // intialize string
        String[] string2 = string1.split(" "); // split string into pieces
 
        System.out.println(string2[0]); // print Hello
 
        // if (string2[0] == "Hello") {
        // System.out.println("True");
        // }
        System.out.println(string2[0] == "Hello"); // return false why? I was expecting a True

In the comments you can see my issue, I'm asking.

Yes, you are right. Silly mistake. I just adjusted my code here it is but I'm still not getting what I'm looking for.

  String string1 = "Hello how are you"; // intialize string
        String[] string2 = string1.split(" "); // split string into pieces
 
        // System.out.println(string2[0]); // print Hello
 
        if (string2[0] == "Hello") {
            System.out.println("True"); // does not print anything? WHY? 
        }

I do not get any output..
