I have string like this String s="ram123",d="ram varma656887"
I want string like ram and ram varma so how to seperate string from combined string
I am trying using regex but it is not working
PersonName.setText(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(cursor
.getColumnName(1))).replaceAll("[^0-9]+"));
The correct RegEx for selecting all numbers would be just [0-9], you can skip the +, since you use replaceAll.
However, your usage of replaceAll is wrong, it's defined as follows: replaceAll(String regex, String replacement). The correct code in your example would be: replaceAll("[0-9]", "").
You can use the following regex: \d for representing numbers. In the regex that you use, you have a ^ which will check for any characters other than the charset 0-9
String s="ram123";
System.out.println(s);
/* You don't need the + because you are using the replaceAll method */
s = s.replaceAll("\\d", ""); // or you can also use [0-9]
System.out.println(s);
string1234value5678. Wouldn't \\d+ replace it to stringvalue in two iterations, instead of replacing it 8 times with \\d?To remove the numbers, following code will do the trick.
stringname.replaceAll("[0-9]","");
Please do as follows
String name = "ram varma656887";
name = name.replaceAll("[0-9]","");
System.out.println(name);//ram varma
alternatively you can do as
String name = "ram varma656887";
name = name.replaceAll("\\d","");
System.out.println(name);//ram varma
also something like given will work for you
String given = "ram varma656887";
String[] arr = given.split("\\d");
String data = new String();
for(String x : arr){
data = data+x;
}
System.out.println(data);//ram varma
i think you missed the second argument of replace all. You need to put a empty string as argument 2 instead of actually leaving it empty.
try
replaceAll(<your regexp>,"")
you can use Java - String replaceAll() Method. This method replaces each substring of this string that matches the given regular expression with the given replacement.
Here is the syntax of this method:
public String replaceAll(String regex, String replacement)
Here is the detail of parameters:
regex -- the regular expression to which this string is to be matched.
replacement -- the string which would replace found expression.
Return Value:
This method returns the resulting String.
for your question use this
String s = "ram123", d = "ram varma656887";
System.out.println("s" + s.replaceAll("[0-9]", ""));
System.out.println("d" + d.replaceAll("[0-9]", ""));
