Java Guava | Shorts.join() method with Examples

Last Updated : 11 Jul, 2025
Shorts.join() is a method of Shorts class in Guava library which returns a combined string of all the given short values separated by separator. For example, join("-", (short) 1, (short) 2, (short) 3) returns the string "1-2-3". Syntax :
public static String join(String separator,
                          short... array)
Parameters :
  • separator : The text that should appear between consecutive values in the resulting string (but not at the start or end).
  • array : An array of short values, possibly empty.
Return Value: A string containing the supplied short values separated by separator. Example-1: Java
// Java code to show implementation of
// Guava's Shorts.join() method
import com.google.common.primitives.Shorts;
import java.util.Arrays;

class GFG {
    // Driver's code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // Creating a short array
        short[] arr = { 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 };

        // Using Shorts.join() method to get a
        // string containing the elements of array
        // separated by a separator
        System.out.println(Shorts.join("#", arr));
    }
}
Output:
2#4#6#8#10
Example-2: Java
// Java code to show implementation of
// Guava's Shorts.join() method
import com.google.common.primitives.Shorts;
import java.util.Arrays;

class GFG {
    // Driver's code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // Creating a short array
        short[] arr = { 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 };

        // Using Shorts.join() method to get a
        // string containing the elements of array
        // separated by a separator
        System.out.println(Shorts.join("*", arr));
    }
