        val isSuffixPresnt = myString.endsWith("language")
    
        if(isSuffixPresnt)
            println("The string ends with the given suffix!")

    }
}

Output:

The string ends with the given suffix!

Example 2:

object myObject {
    def main(args: Array[String]) {
        val myString = "Scala programming language"
        
        val isSuffixPresnt = myString.endsWith("f")
    
        if(isSuffixPresnt)
            println("The strings ends with the given suffix!")
