Scala Programming: Check whether a given string ends with the contents of another string

Scala Programming String Exercise-7 with Solution

Write a Scala program to check whether a given string ends with the contents of another string.

Sample Solution:

Scala Code:

object Scala_String {  
  def test(str1: String, end_str: String): Boolean = {
    str1.endsWith(end_str)   
  }
  def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
        val str1 = "Python Exercises";
        val str2 = "Python Exercise";

        // The String to check the above two Strings to see
        // if they end with this value (se).
        val end_str = "se";

        // Check first two Strings end with end_str
        val ends1 = test(str1, end_str)
        val ends2 = test(str2, end_str)
        // Display the results of the endsWith calls.
        println("\"" + str1 + "\" ends with " +
            "\"" + end_str + "\"? " + ends1);
        println("\"" + str2 + "\" ends with " +
            "\"" + end_str + "\"? " + ends2);
      }
}

Sample Output:

"Python Exercises" ends with "se"? false
"Python Exercise" ends with "se"? true
