equals(…) and equalsIgnoreCase(…)

Question

Why do we have equals() and equalsIgnoreCase() as two different methods, when equals() could have been overloaded with a special

Answer 1

equalIgnoreCase() is used for ignore the Case sensitive of our String. But the equals() is only returns true, while be same case of string

ex,

String value="java";
if(value.equals("JAva")
{
    System.out.println("Return True");
}
else
{
    System.out.println("Return False");
}

Ans: Returns False

but the other one is,

if(value.equalIgnoreCase("JAva")
{
    System.out.println("Return True");
}
else
{
    System.out.println("Return False");
}

Ans: Returns True
