What is StringUtils.right() in Java?

How to import `StringUtils`

The definition of StringUtils can be found in the Apache Commons Lang package, which we can add to the Maven project by adding the following dependency to the pom.xml file.

<dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
            <artifactId>commons-lang3</artifactId>
            <version>3.12.0</version>
</dependency>

For other versions of the commons-lang package, refer to the Maven Repository.

You can import the StringUtils class as follows.

import org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils;

Syntax

public static String right(final String str, final int len)

Parameters

final String str: The string to get the rightmost characters from.
final int len: The length of the rightmost characters to extract from the string.

Return value

This method returns the rightmost characters of the string.

import org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils;
public class Main{
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Example 1
        String string = "hello-educative";
        int len = 5;
        System.out.printf("StringUtils.right('%s', %s) = '%s'", string, len, StringUtils.right(string, len));
        System.out.println();
        // Example 2
        len = -1;
        System.out.printf("StringUtils.right('%s', %s) = '%s'", string, len, StringUtils.right(string, len));
        System.out.println();
    }
}
