public class CompareToDemo
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        int result = "Welcome".compareTo("Welcome");
        System.out.println("\"Welcome\".compareTo(\"Welcome\") = "
                + result);

        result = "Hello".compareTo("Welcome");
        System.out.println("\"Hello\".compareTo(\"Welcome\") = "
                + result);

        result = "Welcome".compareTo("Apple");
        System.out.println("\"Welcome\".compareTo(\"Apple\") = "
