How to display rupee symbol in my java class?

Question

if(this.currency.equalsIgnoreCase("₹")) {
    r="₹ "+r;
}

I want to compare ₹(Indian rupee symbol) in java. Here I am trying to print currency rupee symbol, but instead it is displaying the symbol like â?¹.

How to overcome this problem?

Answer 1

You can try with:

if(this.currency.equals("\u20B9")) {
    r="₹ "+r;
}

"\u20B9" is the java encoding for rupee symbol.
