In this section, we will learn what the String copyValueOf() method is and how to use it in Java.

• `offset`: this is the index number of the `char array` that we want to start from there and copy the elements.
• `count`: the argument we set here is the number of elements we want to be copied from the target `char array` starting from the offset.

        char[] chars = {'h','e','l','l','o',' ','w','o','r','l','d'};
        String copy = "";
        copy = copy.copyValueOf(chars, 6, 5);
        System.out.println(copy);
    }
