 # Strings
 
-Strings are sequences of characters. In Java, a `String` is an `Object`. Strings should not be confused with `char` as characters are literally a single value rather than a sequence of characters. You can still use a single value within a String, however, it is preferred to use `char` when you are checking for a single character.

 #### Comparing Strings 
 If you want to compare the value of two String variables, you can't use `==`. This is due to the fact that this will compare the references of the variables
 and not the values that are linked to them. To compare the stored values of the Strings you use the `.equals()` method.

 The second comparison is true because the variables store the same values. In this case - `"Hello world"`.

 The ```.substring()``` method can be used in two ways. One with only the starting index and one with both the start and end index. Take note that the index starts from 0.
 Example:
 ```java
-String text = "Hello,My name is Bob";
+String text = "Hello,This is FreeCodeCamp";
 System.out.println(text.substring(6));
 ```
 Will produce
 ```
-My Name is Bob
+This is FreeCodeCamp
 ```
 To use it with an ending index take note that the actual ending index is -1 of the value passed into the method.
 Now using ```.substring()``` with an ending index
 Example:
 ```
-String text = "Hello,My name is Bob";
-System.out.println(text.substring(6,8));
-
+String text = "Hello,This is FreeCodeCamp";
+System.out.println(text.substring(14,18));
 ```
 The result will be:
 ```
-My
+Free
 ```
