Introduction
In this demo I have used NetBeans IDE 8.2 for debugging purpose. But you can use any java programming language compiler as per your availability..
public class Javaexcercise { public static int getLineCount(String text){ return text.split("[\n|\r]").length; } public static void main(String a[]){ String str = "line1\nline2\nline3\rline4"; int count = getLineCount(str); System.out.println("Total Line count: "+count); } }
