How to convert a string with multiple points to double in android

I have a string "3,350,800" with multiple points I want to convert to double but have error multiple points
String number = "3,350,800"
number = number.replace(",", ".");
double value = Double.parseDouble(number);
Error : java.lang.NumberFormatException: multiple points

The . character is used as a decimal point in English, and you cannot have more than one of those in a number.
It seems like you're using it as a thousands separator though. This is legal in several locales - you just need to use one that allows it, e.g.:
String number = "3.350.800";
NumberFormat format = NumberFormat.getInstance(Locale.GERMAN);
double value = format.parse(number).doubleValue();

Mix of other answers, no reason to change the , for . and then fetch the German local.
String number = "3,350,800";
NumberFormat format = NumberFormat.getInstance();
double value = format.parse(number).doubleValue();
System.out.println(value);
Output:
3350800.0

you need to use something like this :
String number = "3,350,800";
number = number.replaceAll(",", "");
double value = Double.parseDouble(number);
System.out.println(value);

What number are you trying to get?
3.350.800 is what you're trying to parse as a double,
but that's obviously not a number, since there are "multiple points".
If you just wanna get 3,350,800 as your number, simply change this line -
number = number.replace(",", ".");
to this -
number = number.replace(",", "");

Parse double from JFormattedTextField

I've got a bug or something. I have a method that saves an article, like this:
class SaveArticleListener implements ActionListener {
//....
String s = textArticlePrice.getText().replace(',','.').replaceAll("\\s","");
double price = Double.parseDouble(s);
//....
}
Where textArticlePrice is a JFormattedTextField which configured like:
NumberFormat priceFormat = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
priceFormat.setMaximumFractionDigits(2);
priceFormat.setMinimumFractionDigits(2);
textArticlePrice = new JFormattedTextField(priceFormat);
textArticlePrice.setColumns(10);
And in the parseDouble method I'm getting every time:
java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "123 456 789.00"
So replace works with a dot, but not with whitespace... Why?

You'd be better off using your NumberFormat to parse the String. Keep a reference to priceFormat, and then use
double price = priceFormat.parse(textArticlePrice.getText()).doubleValue();
The formatter that's being used to display the number is the same one then used to turn it back into a double so you know it's going to be parsing it in a compatible way.
Best of all is
double price = ((Number) textArticlePrice.getValue()).doubleValue();
which should work without any need for conversion if you've set your JFormattedTextField up properly. (The getValue() call returns an Object, so you need to cast it. It might return a Double or a Long, depending on what's in the text field, so the safe way to get a double out of it is to treat it as a Number, which is the supertype of both, and invoke its .doubleValue() method.)
Writing something that converts it into something that can be parsed by Double.parseDouble() is really not the right way to go because it's too fragile if the formatting of your text field changes later on.

Regarding your question" why doesn't it work with white spaces". White spaces are chars just like a,l,#,?,¡, but it only recognises ,12345, numbers together as a number, you cant make an int variable 'int number = 1 234; Its the same with parsing. Rather try,
s = s.replace(',','.');
s = s.replace(" ","");
Price = Double.parseDouble(s);
Assuming that '123 456 789.00' is one number.
please comment if this helped.

I did this now, it worked fine
String strNumber = "1 2 3 4 5 6.789";
double DblNumber = Double.parseDouble(strNumber);
System.out.Println(DblNumber);// this displays the number if your IDE has an output window

Formating big numbers in Java

I have an edittext with a maxlength
My question is...
How can I display the value of a bigger number than the maxlenght like the windows calc??
Example:
1.34223423423434e+32
I want this with the edittext maxlength
EDIT: I want this for display and store numbers without having problems with math operations if it's possible
Thanks

This is what the BigInteger class (or BigDecimal, for non-integers) is for.
These classes store numbers with arbitrary precision, and allow for standard arithmetic operations. You can get the exact value of the number as a string, and then format that as you wish (e.g. trimming the length).
(Note that while it may seem like you can use these classes with a NumberFormat instance, this is not recommended as accuracy will be silently lost if the number doesn't fit into a double.)
Here's an example of using it:
// Create a BigDecimal from the input text
final String numStr = editText.getValue(); // or whatever your input is
final BigDecimal inputNum = new BigDecimal(numStr);
// Alternatievly you could pass a double into the BigDecimal constructor,
// though this might already lose precison - e.g. "1.1" cannot be represented
// exactly as a double. So the String constructor is definitely preferred,
// especially if you're using Double.parseDouble somewhere "nearby" as then
// it's a drop-in replacement.
// Do arithmetic with it if needed:
final BigDecimal result = inputNum.multiply(new BigDecimal(2));
// Print it out in standard scientific format
System.out.println(String.format("%e", result));
// Print it out in the format you gave, i.e. scientific with 14dp
System.out.println(String.format("%.14e", result));
// Or do some custom formatting based on the exact string value of the number
final String resultStr = result.toString();
System.out.println("It starts with " + result.subString(0, 3) + "...");
I'm not sure exactly what format you wanted for output, but whatever it is you should be able to manage it with BigDecimals as the backing store.

How to parse number string containing commas into an integer in java?

I'm getting NumberFormatException when I try to parse 265,858 with Integer.parseInt().
Is there any way to parse it into an integer?

Is this comma a decimal separator or are these two numbers? In the first case you must provide Locale to NumberFormat class that uses comma as decimal separator:
NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(Locale.FRANCE).parse("265,858")
This results in 265.858. But using US locale you'll get 265858:
NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(java.util.Locale.US).parse("265,858")
That's because in France they treat comma as decimal separator while in US - as grouping (thousand) separator.
If these are two numbers - String.split() them and parse two separate strings independently.

You can remove the , before parsing it to an int:
int i = Integer.parseInt(myNumberString.replaceAll(",", ""));

If it is one number & you want to remove separators, NumberFormat will return a number to you. Just make sure to use the correct Locale when using the getNumberInstance method.
For instance, some Locales swap the comma and decimal point to what you may be used to.
Then just use the intValue method to return an integer. You'll have to wrap the whole thing in a try/catch block though, to account for Parse Exceptions.
try {
NumberFormat ukFormat = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(Locale.UK);
ukFormat.parse("265,858").intValue();
} catch(ParseException e) {
//Handle exception
}

One option would be to strip the commas:
"265,858".replaceAll(",","");

The first thing which clicks to me, assuming this is a single number, is...
String number = "265,858";
number.replaceAll(",","");
Integer num = Integer.parseInt(number);

Or you could use NumberFormat.parse, setting it to be integer only.
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/NumberFormat.html#parse(java.lang.String)

Try this:
String x = "265,858 ";
x = x.split(",")[0];
System.out.println(Integer.parseInt(x));
EDIT :
if you want it rounded to the nearest Integer :
String x = "265,858 ";
x = x.replaceAll(",",".");
System.out.println(Math.round(Double.parseDouble(x)));

How can I format a String number to have commas and round?

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.
