String string = "Madam, I am Adam";
// Starts with
boolean b = string.startsWith("Mad"); // true
// Ends with
b = string.endsWith("dam"); // true
// Anywhere
b = string.indexOf("I am") > 0; // true
// To ignore case, regular expressions must be used
// Starts with
b = string.matches("(?i)mad.*");
// Ends with
b = string.matches("(?i).*adam");
// Anywhere
b = string.matches("(?i).*i am.*");
“Low quality code is not cheaper; it is vastly more expensive, even in the short term. Bad code slows everyone down from the minute that it is written. It creates a continuous and copious drag on further progress. It requires armies of coders to overcome that drag; and those armies must grow exponentially to maintain constant velocity against that drag.” Robert C. Martin
