The video tutorial covers working with text data using the string class, highlighting methods like equals, compare, length, charAt, and others for string manipulation. It explains the differences between using operators and methods for string comparison. The tutorial also introduces the StringBuilder class, emphasizing its mutability compared to the immutability of the string class. A project involving string manipulation and permutations is included, and the session concludes with a preview of the next section on methods.

Which method is used to compare the content of two strings in Java?

• charAt()

• ==

• compareTo()

• substring()

• toLowerCase()

What is the main difference between String and StringBuilder in Java?

• StringBuilder is mutable, String is immutable
