This static **`lineSeparator()` function** helps to return the line separator string. This string is system-dependent and returns the same value all the time.

# 
## Syntax

---
```java
public static String lineSeparator()
```
---

## Parameters
`NA`: This function does not take any argument value.

## Return Value
* In Windows-based systems, this function will return `\r\n` or a positive integer.
* In UNIX-based systems, the `lineSeparator()` method will return `\n` or a positive integer.

* _NullPointerException_: It will throw null pointer exception when the string is `null`.

## Example
The code below helps to understand the working of the `lineSeparator()` method. It will return a number when the string is not null which will be the line separator.

import java.io.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.nio.channels.Channel;
// Main class
public class EdPresso{
        // main method
    public static void main(String[] args) 
            throws NullPointerException, IOException
    {       // calling lineSeparatir()
        String str = System.lineSeparator();
        for (char ch : str.toCharArray()) {
            System.out.println((int)ch);
        }
    }
}
