In a Bash script, I would like to split a line into pieces and store them in an array. For example, given the line: Paris, France, Europe I would like to have the resulting array to look like so: array[0] = Paris array[1] = France array[2] = Europe A simple implementation is preferable; speed does … Read more
I have a comma-separated string that I want to convert into an array, so I can loop through it. For example, I have this string var str = “January,February,March,April,May,June,July,August,September,October,November,December”; Now I want to split this by the comma, and then store it in an array. Is there anything built-in to do this? Of course I … Read more
I need to split a string into newlines in .NET and the only way I know of to split strings is with the Split method. However that will not allow me to (easily) split on a newline, so what is the best way to do it? 17 s 17 To split on a string you … Read more
I have a string, “004-034556″, that I want to split into two strings: string1=”004″; string2=”034556”; That means the first string will contain the characters before ‘-‘, and the second string will contain the characters after ‘-‘. I also want to check if the string has ‘-‘ in it. If not, I will throw an exception. … Read more
I have this string stored in a variable: IN=”[email protected];[email protected]” Now I would like to split the strings by ; delimiter so that I have: ADDR1=”[email protected]” ADDR2=”[email protected]” I don’t necessarily need the ADDR1 and ADDR2 variables. If they are elements of an array that’s even better. After suggestions from the answers below, I ended up with … Read more
I’m trying to iterate over the words of a string. The string can be assumed to be composed of words separated by whitespace. Note that I’m not interested in C string functions or that kind of character manipulation/access. Also, please give precedence to elegance over efficiency in your answer. The best solution I have right … Read more
This behavior is explicitly documented in String.split(String regex) (emphasis mine): This method works as if by invoking the two-argument split method with the given expression and a limit argument of zero. Trailing empty strings are therefore not included in the resulting array. If you want those trailing empty strings included, you need to use String.split(String … Read more
What you have should work. If, however, the spaces provided are defaulting to… something else? You can use the whitespace regex: str = “Hello I’m your String”; String[] splited = str.split(“\\s+”); This will cause any number of consecutive spaces to split your string into tokens.
When using “\t”, the escape sequence \t is replaced by Java with the character U+0009. When using “\\t”, the escape sequence \\ in \\t is replaced by Java with \, resulting in \t that is then interpreted by the regular expression parser as the character U+0009. So both notations will be interpreted correctly. It’s just the question when it is replaced with the corresponding character.
Just use the appropriate method: String#split(). String string = “004-034556”; String[] parts = string.split(“-“); String part1 = parts[0]; // 004 String part2 = parts[1]; // 034556 Note that this takes a regular expression, so remember to escape special characters if necessary. there are 12 characters with special meanings: the backslash \, the caret ^, the dollar sign $, the period or dot ., the … Read more
