Java - Float Class equals() Method

Float class equals() method: Here, we are going to learn about the equals() method of Float class with its syntax and example. By Preeti Jain Last updated : March 21, 2024

Float class equals() method

  • equals() method is available in java.lang package.
  • equals() method is used to check equality or inequality of this Object against the given Object or in other words we can say this method is used to compare two objects.
  • equals() method is a non-static method, it is accessible with the class object only and if we try to access the method with the class name then we will get an error.
  • equals() method does not throw an exception at the time of comparing two Objects.

Syntax

public boolean equals(Object ob);

Parameters

  • Object ob – represents the Object to compare with.

Return Value

The return type of this method is boolean, it returns a boolean value, if both objects are same it returns true, else it returns false.

Example

// Java program to demonstrate the example 
// of boolean equals(Object ob) method of 
// Float class

public class EqualsOfFloatClass {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Variables initialization
        Float ob1 = new Float(10.0f);
        Float ob2 = new Float(20.0f);

        // Display value1,value2 values
        System.out.println("ob1: " + ob1);
        System.out.println("ob2: " + ob2);

        // It compare two objects of Float type
        // by calling ob1.equals(ob2)
        boolean compare = ob1.equals(ob2);

        // Display result values
        System.out.println("ob1.equals(ob2): " + compare);

        if (compare == true)
            System.out.println("Both objects are equal");
        else
            System.out.println("Both objects are not equal");
    }
}

Output

ob1: 10.0
ob2: 20.0
ob1.equals(ob2): false
Both objects are not equal
