Hi all,
I need to break up a large string into individual words, and then compare the
first word of the large string with a different word.
I can get the first word of the large string and display it and I can also
display the word I want to compare it with, but when I compare them, it says
they are different, even though they aren't! Here is my code:

   public void listAppointments(int dayNo)
   {
...
       String dayNumber = "" + dayNo;
       String stToken;
       for (int index = 0; index < daySlots.size(); index++) {

           daySlots.get(index);

           StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(theAppointment.toString()
);

           stToken = "" + st.nextToken();

           if (stToken == dayNumber) {
               System.out.println(theAppointment.toString());
           }
           else {
               System.out.println("Fail");
           }
       }
   }
   
stToken takes the first word from the large string and turns it into an
individual String, dayNumber is the string I want to compare it with.
Even though these are both the same when I output them, "Fail" is still
outputted when I compare them. Can anyone tell me why this is and advise me
on a solution? Please don't give me the code for it as this is coursework!!!
