I have a sentence in modal e.g. "Your balance is 29,2 euro" and I need to get a number and store it. But a number is dynamic. So don't know the exact value. It can be integer as well as decimal.
And then I need to compare this value (the one which has been stored) with the value on next page.
Thank you for any help :)
Welcome to SO :)
Given that your string is quite static and you want to find a value inside it, I'd recommend you use Apache Commons' substringBetween. If you don't want to add an additional dependency then you could implement this method yourself, it looks something like this:
public static String substringBetween(String initial, String open, String close) {
int start = str.indexOf(open) + open.length();
int end = str.indexOf(close, start);
return str.substring(start, end);
}
Then the following issue you'd have is that separating decimals by comma is not Java's standard, so 29,2 won't be resolved by Double.valueOf or Double.parseDouble. You will need to either:
Replace comma with dot, this can be achieved by using str.replaceAll(",", ".")
Use a NumberFormat. For example, default NumberFormat for France Locale is using a comma to separate decimals.
A final solution will look like this:
public static void main(String[] args) throws ParseException {
String initialString = "Your balance is 29,2 euro";
double doubleValue = parseAsDouble(findValue(initialString));
System.out.println(doubleValue);
}
private static String findValue(String initial) {
return StringUtils.substringBetween(initial, "Your balance is ", " euro");
}
private static double parseAsDouble(String value) throws ParseException {
return NumberFormat.getInstance(Locale.FRANCE)
.parse(value)
.doubleValue();
}
As mentioned earlier, you could change the implementation of findValue to use substring or regex and the implementation of parseAsDouble to use Double.parseDouble after replacing comma with dot.

import java.util.*;
public class test
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int i = 123;
String s = Integer.toString(i);
int Test = Integer.parseInt(s, s.charAt(0)); // ERROR!
}
}
I want to parse the input string based on char position to get the positional integer.
Error message:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NumberFormatException: radix 49 greater than Character.MAX_RADIX
at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Unknown Source)
at test.main(test.java:11)
That method you are calling parseInt(String, int) expects a radix; something that denotes the "number system" you want to work in, like
parseInt("10", 10)
(10 for decimal)! Instead, use
Integer.parseInt(i)
or
Integer.parseInt(i, 10)
assuming you want to work in the decimal system. And to explain your error message - lets have a look at what your code is actually doing. In essence, it calls:
Integer.parseInt("123", '1')
and that boils down to a call
Integer.parseInt("123", 49) // '1' --> int --> 49!
And there we go - as it nicely lines up with your error message; as 49 isn't a valid radix for parsing numbers.
But the real answer here: don't just blindly use some library method. Study its documentation, so you understand what it is doing; and what the parameters you are passing to it actually mean.
Thus, turn here and read what parseInt(String, int) is about!
Integer.parseInt(parameter) expects the parameter to be a String.
You could try Integer.parseInt(s.charAt(0) + ""). The +"" is to append the character to an empty String thereby casting the char to String and this is exactly what the method expects.
Another method to parse Characters to Integers (and in my opinion much better!) is to use Character.getNumericValue(s.charAt(0));
Check this post for further details on converting char to int
Need to convert String.valueOf(s.charAt(0)) to String.valueOf(s.charAt(0)) i.e. Char to String.
import java.util.*;
public class test
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int i = 123;
String s = Integer.toString(i);
int Test = Integer.parseInt(String.valueOf(s.charAt(0)));
}
}
Let use what we have here.
To parse one digit from a String into an integer. Use getNumericValue(char)
In your case, to get the first character into a number :
int n = Character.getNumericValue(s.charAt(0));
Be aware that you should take the absolute value if you integer can be negative.
Hi I have a excel file reading application which reads every cell in the file.
whenever a cell contains a numeric value the app is treating it a numeric cell.
For example the cell contains (40002547) the application will treat this as numeric cell. I cab get the value by using this code:
SONum = String.valueOf(cellSONum.getNumericCellValue());
Well that works fine. My Problem is it appends decimal at the end of the string. it will be (40002547.0). I need it to be as is. Thanks in advance
It's because cellSONum.getNumericCellValue() is returning a floating point type. If you force it to an integer before calling valueOf(), you should get the string representation in an integral form, if indeed that's what you want for all possibilities:
SONum = String.valueOf((int)cellSONum.getNumericCellValue());
You can see this in the following code:
class Test {
public static void main(String[]args) {
double d = 1234;
System.out.println(String.valueOf(d));
System.out.println(String.valueOf((int)d));
}
}
which outputs:
1234.0
1234
However, if you want to just get rid of .0 at the end of any string but allow non-integral values to survive, you can just remove the trailing text yourself:
class Test {
public static void main(String[]args) {
double d1 = 1234;
double d2 = 1234.567;
System.out.println(String.valueOf(d1).replaceFirst("\\.0+$", ""));
System.out.println(String.valueOf(d2).replaceFirst("\\.0+$", ""));
}
}
That snippet outputs:
1234
1234.567
Try with split().
SONum = String.valueOf(cellSONum.getNumericCellValue());
SONum = SONum.split("\\.")[0];
When you split 40002547.0 with . ,the split function returns two parts and the first one you need.
If you want to be sure you are not cutting of any valid decimals, you can use regexp also:
String pattern = "\.0+"; // dot followed by any number of zeros
System.out.println(String.valueOf(cellSONum.getNumericCellValue()).replaceAll(pattern, ""));
More on java regexp for example: http://www.vogella.com/articles/JavaRegularExpressions/article.html
As PaxDiablo also mentions, cellSONum.getNumericCellValue() returns a floating point.
You can cast this to Long or int to get rid of all behind the '.'
String SONum = String.valueOf(cellSONum.getNumericCellValue().longValue());
used as example:
String SONum = String.valueOf((new Double(0.5)).longValue());
SONum = ""+cellSONum.getNumericCellValue().split(".")[0];
try
double value = 23.0;
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("0.##");
System.out.println("bd value::"+ df.format(value))
Consider using BigDecimal.
You could simply say
BigDecimal scaledDecimal = new BigDecimal(value).setScale(0, RoundingMode.HALF_EVEN);
This will help in case your input is String and you need result also in String
1). Convert the string to Double using Double.parseDouble,
2). Type cast to int, then convert to string using String.valueOf()
private String formatText(String text) {
try {
return String.valueOf((int) Double.parseDouble(text));
} catch (NumberFormatException e) {
return text;
}
}
You can do Explicit type casting to remove the decimals,
double desvalue = 3.586;
int value = (int)desvalue;
Say for example that I have the Double value 1.23456789123456. I want to be able to multiply this number by various powers of 10 and display the output as
123.456789123456
12345.6789123456
0.0123456789123456
0.000123456789123456
etc
Is there any way to do this in Java without having to use if...then statements to handle the changing decimal precision required for different powers of 10?
This could be improved, but it's close:
public class Test {
public static void main(final String[] args) {
System.out.println(format(123.456789123456d));
System.out.println(format(12345.6789123456d));
System.out.println(format(0.0123456789123456d));
System.out.println(format(0.000123456789123456d));
}
public static String format(final double d) {
final int before = 16 - Integer.toString((int) d).length();
final String format = "%" + (16 + before) + "." + before + "f";
return String.format(format, d);
}
Output:
123.4567891234560
12345.67891234560
0.012345678912346
0.000123456789123
If you don't need the number as an actual floating point value, try representing the number as a String without a decimal point (e.g., "123456789123456"). Then using the String.substring() method, you can print the decimal point wherever you want, include leading zeroes, etc. I don't know that you can totally avoid using any if statements, but the logic should be fairly straightforward.
For instance, this prints the decimal after three significant digits:
String n = "123456789123456";
System.out.print(n.substring(0, 3));
System.out.print('.');
System.out.print(n.substring(3));

How do I convert a double value with 10 digits for e.g 9.01236789E9 into a string 9012367890 without terminating any of its digits ?
I tried 9.01236789E9 * Math.pow(10,9) but the result is still double "9.01236789E18"
double d = 9.01236789E9;
System.out.println(BigDecimal.valueOf(d).toPlainString());
While 10 digits should be preservable with no problems, if you're interested in the actual digits used, you should probably be using BigDecimal instead.
If you really want to format a double without using scientific notation, you should be able to just use NumberFormat to do that or (as of Java 6) the simple string formatting APIs:
import java.text.*;
public class Test
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
double value = 9.01236789E9;
String text = String.format("%.0f", value);
System.out.println(text); // 9012367890
NumberFormat format = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
format.setMaximumFractionDigits(0);
format.setGroupingUsed(false);
System.out.println(format.format(value)); // 9012367890
}
}
Try String.format("%20.0f", 9.01236789E9)
Note though it's never an exact value, so "preserving every digit" doesn't really make sense.
You can use it.
String doubleString = Double.toString(inValue)
inValue -----> Described by you.to what position you want to Change double to a string.
In this case, you can also do
double value = 9.01236789E9;
System.out.println((long) value); // prints 9012367890
What is the best way to format the following number that is given to me as a String?
String number = "1000500000.574" //assume my value will always be a String
I want this to be a String with the value: 1,000,500,000.57
How can I format it as such?
You might want to look at the DecimalFormat class; it supports different locales (eg: in some countries that would get formatted as 1.000.500.000,57 instead).
You also need to convert that string into a number, this can be done with:
double amount = Double.parseDouble(number);
Code sample:
String number = "1000500000.574";
double amount = Double.parseDouble(number);
DecimalFormat formatter = new DecimalFormat("#,###.00");
System.out.println(formatter.format(amount));
This can also be accomplished using String.format(), which may be easier and/or more flexible if you are formatting multiple numbers in one string.
String number = "1000500000.574";
Double numParsed = Double.parseDouble(number);
System.out.println(String.format("The input number is: %,.2f", numParsed));
// Or
String numString = String.format("%,.2f", numParsed);
For the format string "%,.2f" - "," means separate digit groups with commas, and ".2" means round to two places after the decimal.
For reference on other formatting options, see https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/data/numberformat.html
Given this is the number one Google result for format number commas java, here's an answer that works for people who are working with whole numbers and don't care about decimals.
String.format("%,d", 2000000)
outputs:
2,000,000
Once you've converted your String to a number, you can use
// format the number for the default locale
NumberFormat.getInstance().format(num)
or
// format the number for a particular locale
NumberFormat.getInstance(locale).format(num)
I've created my own formatting utility. Which is extremely fast at processing the formatting along with giving you many features :)
It supports:
Comma Formatting E.g. 1234567 becomes 1,234,567.
Prefixing with "Thousand(K),Million(M),Billion(B),Trillion(T)".
Precision of 0 through 15.
Precision re-sizing (Means if you want 6 digit precision, but only have 3 available digits it forces it to 3).
Prefix lowering (Means if the prefix you choose is too large it lowers it to a more suitable prefix).
The code can be found here. You call it like this:
public static void main(String[])
{
int settings = ValueFormat.COMMAS | ValueFormat.PRECISION(2) | ValueFormat.MILLIONS;
String formatted = ValueFormat.format(1234567, settings);
}
I should also point out this doesn't handle decimal support, but is very useful for integer values. The above example would show "1.23M" as the output. I could probably add decimal support maybe, but didn't see too much use for it since then I might as well merge this into a BigInteger type of class that handles compressed char[] arrays for math computations.
you can also use the below solution
public static String getRoundOffValue(double value){
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("##,##,##,##,##,##,##0.00");
return df.format(value);
}
public void convert(int s)
{
System.out.println(NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(Locale.US).format(s));
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
LocalEx n=new LocalEx();
n.convert(10000);
}
You can do the entire conversion in one line, using the following code:
String number = "1000500000.574";
String convertedString = new DecimalFormat("#,###.##").format(Double.parseDouble(number));
The last two # signs in the DecimalFormat constructor can also be 0s. Either way works.
Here is the simplest way to get there:
String number = "10987655.876";
double result = Double.parseDouble(number);
System.out.println(String.format("%,.2f",result));
output:
10,987,655.88
The first answer works very well, but for ZERO / 0 it will format as .00
Hence the format #,##0.00 is working well for me.
Always test different numbers such as 0 / 100 / 2334.30 and negative numbers before deploying to production system.
According to chartGPT
Using DecimalFormat:
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("#,###.00");
String formattedNumber = df.format(yourNumber);
Using NumberFormat:
NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
nf.setGroupingUsed(true);
String formattedNumber = nf.format(yourNumber);
Using String.format():
String formattedNumber = String.format("%,.2f", yourNumber);
Note: In all the above examples, "yourNumber" is the double value that you want to format with a comma. The ".2f" in the format string indicates that the decimal places should be rounded to 2 decimal places. You can adjust this value as needed.
