How do I concatenate two strings in Java?

Question

Below is my code to concatenate strings in Java:

public class StackOverflowTest {  

    public static void main(String args[]) {

        int theNumber = 42;

        System.out.println("Your number is " . theNumber . "!");

    }

}

When I run it, it's not working. Can anyone tell me how to concatenate two strings In Java? 

Answer 1

Use the below code to concatenate Strings using the + operator:

System.out.println("Your number is " + theNumber + "!");

When you run this, theNumber is implicitly converted to the String "42".
