I would like to know the difference between new String(byte[],encoding) and new String().getBytes(encoding).
Please explain.

There is nothing like trying, either you do it or you don't.

The first one produces a String as the result. The second one produces a byte array as the result.
There are more differences, but you only asked for one.

The first takes a byte[] and creates a String with its contents. The second creates a new empty String, then retrieves its bytes in a specific encoding, then throws away this empty String. The byte[] should be empty.
