这是你要找的吗?

int index = string.indexOf(character);
return index != -1;

是的，在字符串类上使用indexOf()方法。请参阅此方法的API文档

package com;
public class _index {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String s1="be proud to be an indian";
        char ch=s1.charAt(s1.indexOf('e'));
        int count = 0; 
        for(int i=0;i<s1.length();i++) {
            if(s1.charAt(i)=='e'){
                System.out.println("number of E:=="+ch);
                count++;
            }
        }
        System.out.println("Total count of E:=="+count);
    }
}

要检查字符串中是否存在某些东西，您至少需要查看字符串中的每个字符。所以即使你没有显式地使用循环，它也会有同样的效率。也就是说，您可以尝试使用str.contains(""+char)。

you can use this code. It will check the char is present or not. If it is present then the return value is >= 0 otherwise it's -1. Here I am printing alphabets that is not present in the input.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Test {

public static void letters()
{
    System.out.println("Enter input char");
    Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
    String input = sc.next();
    System.out.println("Output : ");
    for (char alphabet = 'A'; alphabet <= 'Z'; alphabet++) {
            if(input.toUpperCase().indexOf(alphabet) < 0) 
                System.out.print(alphabet + " ");
    }
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
    letters();
}

}

//Ouput Example
Enter input char
nandu
Output : 
B C E F G H I J K L M O P Q R S T V W X Y Z

string .contains()检查字符串是否包含指定的char值序列 string . indexof()返回字符串中第一次出现指定字符或子字符串的索引(此方法有4种变体)
