how to split string in java android

To split a string in Java, you can use the split method of the String class and specify the delimiter character or pattern to use for splitting.

Here's an example of how you can split a string on a single character:

String s = "apple,banana,cherry";

String[] parts = s.split(",");

for (String part : parts) {
    System.out.println(part);
}

This code will split the string s on the comma character, and print the resulting substrings to the console. The output will be:

apple
banana
cherry

You can also use a regular expression as the delimiter pattern to split the string on multiple characters or a more complex pattern. For example, to split the string on any sequence of one or more whitespace characters, you can use the following code:

String s = "apple   banana  cherry";

String[] parts = s.split("\\s+");

for (String part : parts) {
    System.out.println(part);
}

This code will split the string s on any sequence of one or more whitespace characters, and print the resulting substrings to the console. The output will be:

apple
banana
cherry

By default, the split method will return an array containing all the substrings that were found. You can also specify a limit parameter to limit the number of substrings that are returned. For example, to split the string into at most two substrings, you can

public class Lautturi {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		String s = "apple   banana  cherry";

		String[] parts = s.split("\\s+",2);

		for (String part : parts) {
		    System.out.println(part);
		}
	}
}

output:

apple
banana  cherry
