If string a="aaaa"; and String b="bbbb";
we can compare them as
if(a.equals(b)) and get a boolean as a return type.

We can also compare String as
a.compareTo("aaaa"); which gives 0 as output as they are
equal.

Answer / suman
The == operator works on String object references. If two
String variables point to the same object in memory, the
comparison returns a true result.
The equals method compares the actual char content of two
strings. This method returns true when two String objects
hold char data with the same values.
