LookingI'm looking for feedback on this here code. Is readability an issue? Is it good to mess with all these data types in Java (e.g. strings and Chars and using .equals().equals()
and !=!=
to compare data from different datatypesdata types), or is there an easier way to do it? And in general, how can I improve this code?
Write a method named allPlural that accepts an array of strings as a parameter and returns true only if every string in the array is a plural word, and false otherwise. For this problem a plural word is defined as any string that ends with the letter S, case-insensitively. The empty string "" is not considered a plural word, but the single-letter string "s" or "S" is. Your method should return true if passed an empty array (one with 0 elements).
public static boolean allPlural(String[] words){
for (String s : words) {
// blank string is not plural
if (s.equals("")) {
return false;
}
// if the strings in the array don't have an s on the end, return false
if (Character.toUpperCase(s.charAt(s.length()-1)) != 'S') {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
