Java - remove letters from string

[LetsC]

Hi,

I am new to java. I want to know how you guys remove the letters in a string?
Can someone please help me out?

Calling following method with any String will return a numbers-only string.

public static String getOnlyNumerics(String str) {
    
    if (str == null) {
        return null;
    }

    StringBuffer strBuff = new StringBuffer();
    char c;
    
    for (int i = 0; i < str.length() ; i++) {
        c = str.charAt(i);
        
        if (Character.isDigit(c)) {
            strBuff.append(c);
        }
    }
    return strBuff.toString();
}

Hope this helps.

Try this:

for (int j = 0; j < keyword.length(); j++)
    {
        letter = keyword.charAt(j);
         for (int i = 0; i < alphabet.length(); i ++)
             { 
               if (alphabet.charAt(i) != letter) 
                {
                  r += alphabet.charAt(i);
                }
             }
    }

To extract or remove a String.

public class Sample1 {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        String name = "chickens";

        String extracted1,
               extracted2,
               extracted3;

        extracted1 = name.substring(1);
        extracted2 = name.substring(2);
        extracted3 = name.substring(3);

        System.out.println(extracted1);
        System.out.println(extracted2);
        System.out.println(extracted3);
    }
}
