Best way to parseDouble with comma as decimal separator?
(10 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
I have this String -> "100,24" and I want join in the var Java type float
But when I have the parse, I get error.
article.cost((Float.parseFloat(array.get(y))));
I need help, ty.
The number format must contain dot(.) instead of comma(,). That's why you get the exception. However, you can also use parseFloat with String's replace method to convert float by using comma.
class NumberTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String y = "100,24";
float num = Float.parseFloat(y.replace(',','.'));
System.out.println(num);
}
}
Your issue is the comma, "100,24", that string is not a valid float. So an error will be thrown if you try converting it to one. However if this is what you intended "100.24" that should fix your problem, because that is a valid float type.
So what you do is replace the ',' with a '.' and then try converting. i.e.
String floatStr = "100,24".replace(",", "."); // Change to a correct float value
float newFloat = Float.parse(floatStr); // parse and get your new float

Java keep trailing 0 in float operations

I have a requirement where I am getting a float value in java like the one below
1.1
1.10
10.10
when I convert this to string, I want it to be in the same way as
"1.1"
"1.10"
"10.10"
however, when I use the following method,
float fa = 25.50f;//Float.parseFloat("25.5");
String s = Float.toString(fa);
System.out.println(s); // i want the output to be 25.50, but it gives me 25.5
the result turns out to be the following
"1.1"
"1.1"
"10.1"
can somebody advise me how to get 1.10 as "1.10" with the zero in java
If you want it to store the whole number, why don't you just use a String?
I guess if you are getting "1.10" from somewhere, you are getting it as a String (or you would be getting just a "1.1").
There isn't (necessarily) a float value like 10.10f. There might be, but thing is: when you write down a float literal, you shouldn't expect that it really looks like the value you put down.
Only when representing numbers as strings you can uphold such requirements regarding formatting.
In other words, you probably should read this for example.
How it is printed is determined by how you format a number, the float is just a value, and it's actual representation is binary, not decimal.
String s = String.format("%.2f", 25.5f); // 25.50
I highly recommend using double which is simpler to use, and half a trillion times more accurate.
If your float value comes from String I suggest below solution:
public static void main(String[] args) {
String floatValue = "25.20";
String[] splittedFloat = floatValue.split("[.]");
int numberOfDecimalPlaces = splittedFloat[1].length();
float value = Float.valueOf(floatValue);
System.out.printf("%." + numberOfDecimalPlaces + "f\n", value);
}
First you declare your value as String. Then split it with "dot" and check the length of decimal places. Then you parse it into your float value and you do whatever you want with this value. And finally you cat print it with format like previous because you have number of decimal places of this float value.
The output of this code is:
25.20
There is no way to hold 25.20 value in float because the actual value is 25.2 and that 0 is formatting.

Can you tell me how to achieve this in android:
Transform a String into a float as in:
String temp="1,000,00"
to
float f=100f
I had already gone through links. Getting this exception :
java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid float: ""
Have you tried like this:
String s = "100";
float f = Float.parseFloat(s);
and make sure that the String you are parsing is indeed a float and is not null or empty
You should be using the Float class's parseFloat method.
It sounds like the problem is with the actual string you are using though - can you post that?
Use the Float class.
// String to Float
float temp = Float.parseFloat("100f");
// Float to String:
String str = Float.toString(100.0f);

I want to change a float coming from server to string or string to float.
Can i convert string to float coming from server?
String coming;
coming = new String(rec.getData());
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),comnig,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Yes you can convert a String to a float.
Simply do:
Float.parseFloat(string);
You may want to surround this with a try and catch because if the string is not compatible with type float it will create a stack-trace.

converting string to float
float f = Float.parseFloat(coming);
it's better to use try -catch , because your coming value may contain something that are not compatible with float type .

How to Replace dot (.) in a string in Java

I am reading in java inputs in format below
2499.873639
32.374242
0.610059
...
Now i want to get rid of the decimal place and have them in this format
2499873639
32374242
610059
...
I have this code which does it for smaller number for not for larger numbers. The Larger numbers become negative (i think this overflowing) and giving it junk values.
BigDecimal b = new BigDecimal(a).multiply(new BigDecimal("1000000.")
If i increase the 0's by another two
BigDecimal b = new BigDecimal(a).multiply(new BigDecimal("100000000.")
It works for larger numbers but not smaller numbers. In short of having a bunch of if's is there anyway to fix this issue?
Use this :
BigDecimal b = new BigDecimal(a.toString().replace('.', ''));
String formattedInput = (String.valueOf(input)).replace(".", "");
You can do this with String replacement functions.
public static BigDecimal noDecimal(BigDecimal b) {
return new BigDecimal(b.toPlainString().replace(".", ""));
}
If you already have a String rather than a BigDecimal, this can be simplified to this:
public static BigDecimal noDecimal(String s) {
return new BigDecimal(s.replace(".", ""));
}
Convert the double to String, if it is not.
Then use String.replace('.', '');
Then Convert back to int or long, if necessary.

I'm extracting some numbers from a string, these are being stored as another string. Is there a way to convert these strings into a float?
i tried float f = "string"; but this didnt work.
Thanks
You're looking for Float.parseFloat().
Try Float.parseFloat but it does throw a RuntimeException if it fails so this is one time I would recommend catching it.
try {
Float.parseFloat("0.4")
} catch (NumberFormatException e){
//input is not a float
}
If you want more precision then look at Double.parseDouble() or even the BigDecimal string constructor
This way---: Float.parseFloat("0.4");
