How do I get to split in two places?

Question

I would like to get something to work, a splitting in two places.

System.out.println( Integer.parseInt(text.getText().split("--")[1]
                    .substring((text.getText().split("--")[1]).split("x")[0])));

does not work. If I type --400x55 how do I get it to print "400 , 55".

I want it to be changeable, so if the user types some different dimensions, it will use those. So how would I do this?

Answer 1

    System.out.println(
        Integer.parseInt(
          Arrays.toString(
               text.getText().replaceAll("--","").split("x")
     )
    )
   )

Answer 2

Try:

String[] tokens = text.split("x");
System.out.println(tokens[0].split("-")[2] + " , " + tokens[1]); // tokenize by -

or

String[] tokens = text.split("x");
System.out.println(tokens[0].split("--")[1] + " , " + tokens[1]); // tokenize by --

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

String text="--400x55";
System.out.println(text.split("--")[1]); // gives you 400x55
System.out.println(text.split("--")[1].split("x")[0]); // gives you 400
System.out.println(text.split("--")[1].split("x")[1]); // gives you 55

Answer 4

use Regular expression to split

"--400x55".split(/\D/)

it gives you ["","","400","55"]

use the above array according to your need
