have you declared a and b before comparing them ?
If you code:
java-repl
java> String a = "a";
java.lang.String a = "a"
java> String b = "a";
java.lang.String b = "a"
java> boolean equal = a==b;
boolean equal = true
This should work fine

10,365 PointsHI aditya,
How are you going with the boolean operator problem ? Do you need more explanation?
Could you mark my answer as best, if it was helpful so other Java-Fighters could see it.
