Java Guava | Shorts.join() method with Examples

Last Updated : 30 Jan, 2019

Shorts.join() is a method of Shorts class in Guava library which returns a combined string of all the given short values separated by separator. For example, join(“-“, (short) 1, (short) 2, (short) 3) returns the string “1-2-3”.

Syntax :

public static String join(String separator,
                          short... array)

Parameters :

separator : The text that should appear between consecutive values in the resulting string (but not at the start or end).
array : An array of short values, possibly empty.

Return Value: A string containing the supplied short values separated by separator.

Example-1:

// Java code to show implementation of 
// Guava's Shorts.join() method 
import com.google.common.primitives.Shorts; 
import java.util.Arrays; 
  
class GFG { 
    // Driver's code 
    public static void main(String[] args) 
    { 
        // Creating a short array 
        short[] arr = { 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 }; 
  
        // Using Shorts.join() method to get a 
        // string containing the elements of array 
        // separated by a separator 
        System.out.println(Shorts.join("#", arr)); 
    } 
} 

Output:

2#4#6#8#10

Example-2:

// Java code to show implementation of 
// Guava's Shorts.join() method 
import com.google.common.primitives.Shorts; 
import java.util.Arrays; 
  
class GFG { 
    // Driver's code 
    public static void main(String[] args) 
    { 
        // Creating a short array 
        short[] arr = { 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 }; 
  
        // Using Shorts.join() method to get a 
        // string containing the elements of array 
        // separated by a separator 
        System.out.println(Shorts.join("*", arr)); 
    }
