Java Program To Find Duplicate Characters In a String

Java Program To Find Duplicate Characters In a String

In this Java Program, we find the duplicate characters in a string by using HashMap. 

HashMap is made up of keys and values. In our program we are going to insert chars into keys and their counts into values  and get the set of duplicate keys in the string.

Logic: char are inserted as keys and their count as values

Step 1 : Import java.util.HashMap, java.util.Map, java.util.Set

Step 2 : Create class DupCharacters

Step 3 : Create a HashMap 

Step 4 : Convert the string to char array

Step 5 : Apply the logic and if map contains the char already then increase the value by 1

Step 6 : Apply the for loop

Step 7 : Obtain the set of keys

Step 8 : Display count of chars if it is greater than 1

Step 9 : Apply for loop 

Step 10 : Create the main method

Step 11 : Create the object of the DupCharacters class and display the result by using System.out.print method.

Program :

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.Set;

class DupCharacters 
    {
        public void countDupChars(String str)
        {
            //Create a HashMap
            Map<Character, Integer> map = new HashMap<Character, Integer>();
            
            //Convert the string to char array
            char[] chars = str.toCharArray();
            
            //logic: char are inserted as keys and their count as values
            //If map contains the char already then increase the value by 1
            
            for(Character ch:chars)
            {
                if(map.containsKey(ch))
                {
                    map.put(ch, map.get(ch)+1);
                }
                else
                {
                    map.put(ch,1);
                
                }
            }
            
            //Obtaining set of keys
            Set<Character> keys = map.keySet();
            
            //Display count of chars if it is greater than 1
            //All duplicate chars would be having value greater than 1
            
            for(Character ch:keys)
            {
                if(map.get(ch)>1)
                {
                    System.out.println("Char"+ch+""+map.get(ch));
                    
                }
            }
       
        }
        
        public static void main(String[] args)
        {
            DupCharacters obj = new DupCharacters();
            System.out.println("String: Welcome");
            System.out.println("---------------");
            obj.countDupChars("Welcome");
            
            System.out.println("\nString ITEngineer8995");
            System.out.println("-----------------------");
            obj.countDupChars("ITEngineer8995");
            
            System.out.println("\nString: YoutubeChannel");
            System.out.println("------------------------");
            obj.countDupChars("YoutubeChannel");
            
        }
}

Output:

String: Welcome
---------------
Chare2

String ITEngineer8995
-----------------------
Chare2
Charn2
Char92

String: YoutubeChannel
------------------------
Charu2
Chare2
Charn2
