Category: Performance

When using indexOf with only one character, use a character and not a string as it executes faster.

class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int pos = s.indexOf("f"); 
    }
}

class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int pos = s.indexOf('f'); 
    }
}
