Java Program to initialize a string and print

In this program, lets create a class named InitString which initializes the string and prints on the console using a variable.

Program

class InitString
{
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		String str;
		str = "Welcome to Java Programming tutorial on oodlescoop.com";
		System.out.println(str);		
	}
}

Let us understand the program by breaking into simple parts:

1. class InitString: Any Java program starts with a class, in this case the class name is InitString
2. public static void main(String[] args): main is the entry point for any Java program.
3. String str; : Declare a string variable. Here str is the variable name of type String.
4. str = "Welcome to Java Programming tutorial on oodlescoop.com"; : Initialize the str by assigning the value to variable using double quotes("").
5. System.out.println(str);: System.out.println prints the value/text stored in the variable str.
