Removing A Character From String?

Sep 26, 2014

I am trying to remove a character from string as below

public String reomveChar(String str, int n) {
if(0<=n & n<=(str.length()-1)){
//str.charAt(n)
char o=str.charAt(n);
return str.replace("o","");
//a.replace("o","");
}
return null;
}'

what is the best way to remove it.

If i call like

removeChar("hello", 1) i should see hllo.

When there are more than one way to do a challenge in java which one to choose as best way.

What is the criteria to decide one particular way of writing code is best among say 'n' different number of ways.

Removing Specific Characters From A String

May 7, 2014

I just need to write a simple program/function that replaces certain letters from a string (i.e. censor( "college", "aeiou" ) returns "cllg"). I'm trying to get the code right first, and then write a function for it.I basically just thought that I would iterate over the first string, and once I had the first character, I would then iterate over the second string, to see if the character exists. I'm getting a "dead code" error on my second loop because I put the second "break."

public class ap {
public static void main(String [] args){
String s = "Hello";
String s2 = "aeiou";

String From User Not Removing Spaces

Apr 6, 2014

I'm not sure why but my infix string isn't removing the spaces. Here is the part of the code:

Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter Infix express: ");
String infix = s.nextLine();
infix.replaceAll("\s", "").trim();
System.out.println(infix);
InfixtoPostfix convert = new InfixtoPostfix(infix);
String postfix = convert.toPostFix();
System.out.println("Converted Express: " + postfix);

Is there something I'm doing wrong? Here is the output when I run it:

Enter Infix expression:
(7 + x) * (8 – 2) / 4 + (x + 2)
(7 + x) * (8 – 2) / 4 + (x + 2)
Converted Expression: 7 x+ 8 – 2* /4 x 2++

Tokenize A String - Removing Numeric From A TreeSet

Nov 23, 2014

I am using a TreeSet to tokenize a string. The output is sorted with numeric first followed by words

E.g. 13 26 45 and before etc.....................

Is there a tidy way to remove the numeric?

Last bit of my code is :-

// print the words separating them with a space
for(String word : words) {
System.out.print(word + " ");
}
} catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe) {
System.err.println("Cannot read the input file - pass a valid file name");

Removing Item From String Array - Null Pointer Exception Error

Question 2: In addition, I am having trouble figuring out how to count the number of occurrences of each string in the array and print the counts. I've been looking at other posts but they are more advanced and I have not yet learned how to use some of the tools they are referring to.

Replacing And Checking Character In String?

Jul 24, 2014

so my task is to write a code which would ask user to input the year as integer and first three letters of the month with first being an upper case letter. Than the program would determine the number of days for given year and month.

Currently I have a brain crash on how to check, if the user has provided the month with first character being upper Case. If not, than the program would automatically correct the character. Problem starts at line 17.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class DaysOfMonth4_17 {
public static void main (String[] args) {
//Initiate scanner
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
//Ask for year input and use is as INT
System.out.println("Enter the year");

Uppercase Character Counter In A String

Java Code:

String userInput;
userInput = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter a string.");

My issue is that I would like the program to be able to function properly when spaces are entered into the string. As it is right now, I believe it is only processing the first string entered into the input box.

See Occurrences Of A Character In A String Stored In Text File

Apr 26, 2014

I have this program to see the occurrences of a character in a string stored in a text file. My text file has the following contents (as shown below):

P-P-N-N-L-V
N-R-U-S-R-Q
K-Q-E-L-E-A
A-J-B-G-E-F
F-E-L-Q-R-R
U-F-J-V-I-M
P-I-Q-K-B-K
U-N-L-F-O-B
M-A-N-M-H-O
P-Q-J-D-N-I
G-U-O-D-F-I
Q-M-M-B-C-Q
N-B-I-L-E-J
S-A-T-Q-H-U
C-L-G-U-J-M
R-P-V-M-A-A
C-R-A-V-L-B
M-U-Q-K-M-Q
E-I-C-H-V-J
J-N-N-K-R-P

As you notice, each character is seperated by a hyphen (serving as its delimiter). I want to only go through 10 lines in the text, instead of all 20 of them. So, I wrote the program in such a way that I intend to reach into the indices of each character in the text file. Since there are six characters in each line so that means there are 6 indices - and there are 10 lines I only want to go through. So, 6 indices times 10 lines equals 60 indices. Hence, there are only 60 indices I need to go through. In that manner, it's like I have gone through only 10 lines through that way.

It compiled perfectly fine but upon running it, I ran through an error in the black DOS screen that says

"java.lang.ArrayIndexOutofBoundsException: 6 ".

How do I work around that?

The code I wrote is shown below...

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class hotandcoldclusterdeterminer_test {
public static void main (String args [])throws IOException {

String Class Private Final Character Length

Feb 27, 2015

The String class stores the characters of the string internally as a private char[] and calling someString.length() results in getting the length field from the character array. I am looking to get the details on how the length is implemented. I understand it is a field, but in the original question I provide sample code and really want to know if/how the resulting byte code may differ when compiled, perhaps I am just not seeing the simple answer through my confusion.

Count And Display Number Of Times Specified Character Appears In String

Mar 7, 2014

Write a program using a while-loop (and a for-loop) that asks the user to enter a string, and then asks the user to enter a character. The program should count and display the number of times that the specified character appears in the string. (So, you will have two separate program codes, one using a while-loop and the other one using a for-loop.)

Example:
Enter a string: "Hello, JAVA is my favorite programming language."
Enter a character: e
The number of times the specified character appears in the string: 3

I don't even know where to begin I've only got this

import java.util.Scanner;
 public class letterCounter {
 public static void main(String [] args) {
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter a string");
String myString = sc.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter a letter");
String letter = sc.nextLine();
}
}
