How to parse number string containing commas into an integer in java?

You can remove the , before parsing it to an int:

int i = Integer.parseInt(myNumberString.replaceAll(",", ""));

If it is one number & you want to remove separators, NumberFormat will return a number to you. Just make sure to use the correct Locale when using the getNumberInstance method.

For instance, some Locales swap the comma and decimal point to what you may be used to.

Then just use the intValue method to return an integer. You'll have to wrap the whole thing in a try/catch block though, to account for Parse Exceptions.

try {
    NumberFormat ukFormat = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(Locale.UK);
    ukFormat.parse("265,858").intValue();
} catch(ParseException e) {
    //Handle exception
}

One option would be to strip the commas:

"265,858".replaceAll(",","");

The first thing which clicks to me, assuming this is a single number, is...

String number = "265,858";
number.replaceAll(",","");
Integer num = Integer.parseInt(number);

Or you could use NumberFormat.parse, setting it to be integer only.

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/NumberFormat.html#parse(java.lang.String)

Try this:

String x = "265,858 ";
    x = x.split(",")[0];
    System.out.println(Integer.parseInt(x));

EDIT : if you want it rounded to the nearest Integer :

    String x = "265,858 ";
    x = x.replaceAll(",",".");
    System.out.println(Math.round(Double.parseDouble(x)));
