20,003 PointsFor the method on a string that compares it to another string is the method .equals?
I have been using .equals for the question but have not been getting it right. What am i doing wrong?

The question is not asking you to compare the Strings. You would use .equals if that were the case. However, it asks the following:
"Which method on String will allow you to check if a String is part of another."
String someWords = "These are words";
someWords.__________("words");
Do you recall what to use to see if a String contains another String? i.e. Does someWords contain "words"?
Please let me know if this helps.
Regards,
Chris
