About this page

Java Strings (fresher level) introduces the most-used class. This module is an elevation arc: it opens with String immutability (why Strings can't change — the foundation), then the string pool (the memory optimization that follows from immutability). String methods and comparisons follow, then StringBuilder vs StringBuffer (the mutable companions). String programs are the applied tier, then autoboxing/unboxing and wrapper classes — the primitives-to-objects bridge that pairs with String questions.
