Indexes of all occurrences of character in a string

Question

The following code will print 2  String word    bannanas   String guess    n   int index  System out println       index   word indexOf guess       I would like to know how to get all the indexes of  n    guess   in the string  bannanas   The expected result would be   2 3 5

String word    bannanas    String guess    n    String temp   word   while temp indexOf guess     -1         int index   temp indexOf guess        System out println index        temp   temp substring index   1

Try the following  Which does not print -1 at the end now    int index   word indexOf guess   while index  gt   0       System out println index      index   word indexOf guess  index 1

String string    bannanas   ArrayList lt Integer gt  list   new ArrayList lt Integer gt     char character    n   for int i   0  i  lt  string length    i         if string charAt i     character          list add i             Result would be used like this        for Integer i   list           System out println i           Or as a array    list toArray

This should print the list of positions without the -1 at the end that Peter Lawrey s solution has had   int index   word indexOf guess   while  index  gt   0        System out println index       index   word indexOf guess  index   1       It can also be done as a for loop   for  int index   word indexOf guess        index  gt   0       index   word indexOf guess  index   1         System out println index        Note  if guess can be longer than a single character  then it is possible  by analyzing the guess string  to loop through word faster than the above loops do  The benchmark for such an approach is the Boyer-Moore algorithm  However  the conditions that would favor using such an approach do not seem to be present

With Java9  one can make use of the iterate int seed  IntPredicate hasNext IntUnaryOperator next  as follows -  List lt Integer gt  indexes   IntStream            iterate word indexOf c   index - gt  index  gt   0  index - gt  word indexOf c  index   1              boxed              collect Collectors toList     System out printlnt indexes

This can be done in a functional way with Java 9 using regular expression  Pattern compile Pattern quote guess      sanitize input and create pattern              matcher word     create matcher              results          get the MatchResults  Java 9 method              map MatchResult  start     get the first index              collect Collectors toList       collect found indices into a list         Here s the Kotlin Solution to add this logic as a new a new methods into CharSequence API using extension method      Extension method fun CharSequence indicesOf input  String   List lt Int gt        Regex Pattern quote input      build regex          findAll this              get the matches          map   it range first      get the index          toCollection mutableListOf       collect the result as list     call the methods as  quot Banana quot  indicesOf  quot a quot       1  3  5

This can be done by iterating myString and shifting fromIndex parameter in indexOf       int currentIndex   0     while       myString indexOf        mySubstring        currentIndex   gt   0         System out println currentIndex        currentIndex
