Parse this string in Java

Question

i'm new to Java . How can i obtain right values of each line (second value of the dash separated pair)

Autorul-Stefan

DenumireaCartii-Popovici

CuloareaCartii-Verde

GenulCartii-Religie

Limba-Rusa

SOLVED :

 String line = "Autorul-Stefan";
    String [] fields = line.split("-");
    fields[0] == "Autorul"
    fields[1] == "stefan"

How can we know which is the 'right value' from your point of view ? :) — COD3BOY

use String.split():

String right = str.split("-")[1];

where str contains your String object

  String strings = "Autorul-Stefan";
  String[] tempo;


  tempo = strings.split("-");
    System.out.println(tempo[1]);

You can use the split() function in Strings:

String rightValue = line.split("-")[1];

Where line is the each line of your text (like "Autorul-Stefan") and rightValue is the text to the right of the dash (like "Stefan").

You use [1] to get the second element of the split text (split separates the given String into an array using the given character (here "-") as a divider) So in this example, the first element of the array is the text to the left of the dash and the second element is the text to the right of the dash.
