How should I check whether a string starts or ends with a given string? There doesn't seem to be any built-in methods available (or maybe it's just the IDE I'm using that isn't having it show up: RDE)
The startsWith() method returns true if a string starts with a specified string. Otherwise it returns false . The startsWith() method is case sensitive. See also the endsWith() method.
We can use the startsWith() method of String class to check whether a string begins with a specific string or not, it returns a boolean, true or false.
Python String startswith()The startswith() method returns True if a string starts with the specified prefix(string). If not, it returns False .
There are built in methods:
"String".start_with? "S" # true "String".end_with? "4" # false
