The write(byte[], int, int) method of PrintStream Class in Java is used to write a specified portion of the specified byteacter array on the stream. This byteacter array is taken as a parameter. The starting index and length of byteacters to be written are also taken as parameters.
Syntax:
public void write(byte[] byteArray, int startingIndex, int lengthOfCharArray)
Parameters: This method accepts three mandatory parameters:
- byteArray which is the byteacter array to be written in the Stream.
- startingIndex which is the starting index from which the portion of byteacter is to taken.
- lengthOfCharArray which is the length of byteacters to be written on the stream.
Return Value: This method do not returns any value.
Below methods illustrates the working of write(byte[], int, int) method:
Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate// PrintStream write(byte[], int, int) method  import java.io.*;  class GFG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {          try {              // Create a PrintStream instance            PrintStream stream                = new PrintStream(System.out);              // Get the byteacter array            // to be written in the stream            byte[] byteArray = { 65, 66, 67 };              // Get the starting index            int startingIndex = 0;              // Get the length of byte            int lengthOfCharArray = 1;              // Write the portion of the byteArray            // to this stream using write() method            // This will put the byteArray in the stream            // till it is printed on the console            stream.write(byteArray,                         startingIndex,                         lengthOfCharArray);              stream.flush();        }        catch (Exception e) {            System.out.println(e);        }    }} |
Output:
A
Program 2:
// Java program to demonstrate// PrintStream write(byte[], int, int) method  import java.io.*;  class GFG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {          try {              // Create a PrintStream instance            PrintStream stream                = new PrintStream(System.out);              // Get the byteacter array            // to be written in the stream            byte[] byteArray = { 97, 98, 99 };              // Get the starting index            int startingIndex = 2;              // Get the length of byte            int lengthOfCharArray = 1;              // Write the portion of the byteArray            // to this stream using write() method            // This will put the byteArray in the stream            // till it is printed on the console            stream.write(byteArray,                         startingIndex,                         lengthOfCharArray);              stream.flush();        }        catch (Exception e) {            System.out.println(e);        }    }} |
Output:
c
