if in my String two regex are continuous [comma(,) and space( )] so I want to treat one regex so what should I do.
String s = "He is a very very good boy, isn't he?"; String str[]=s.split("[!._,'@? ]"); My output is:-
11 He is a very very good boy space( ) isn t he I want this:-
10 He is a very very good boy isn t he Consume both tokens on the split, just add + to your pattern to indicate that it should match one or more; like,
String[] str = s.split("[!._,'@? ]+"); You can achieve the same result with StringTokenizer as well. Here is the code segment:-
StringTokenizer str = new StringTokenizer(s," !@,.?_'"); System.out.println(str.countTokens()); while(str.hasMoreTokens()) { System.out.println(str.nextToken()); } To know the difference between StringTokenizer and split() check this link
