Java Tokenizer

[mike_ledis]

hello is how can i use kind of chars to tokenize an sentence?

suppose that i have the following sentence:
15A-45B+25C-56H+91V

And i want to take the following tokens
15A
45B
25C
56H
91V


How should i use the tokenizer class?

using String.split() is usually better, look it up.

It's pretty simple thought, what items do you want to remove from the string?

StringTokenizer tokenizer = new StringTokenizer(s, "-+");

But the Tokenizer is a legacy class, see : StringTokenizer (Java Platform SE 6)

		String s = "15A-45B+25C-56H+91V";
		for (String string : s.split("[-+]")) {
			System.out.println(string);
		}

Imagine the sentence that i gave you as an equation! I want to tokenize the equation to its vars as in the example...

I understood how to do it, a poster gave you the code which is frowned upon, however, he did show you how to do it. I was intending to get you to explain in more detail what you wanted to do, which would make doing this much easier. If for example you responded and said "I want to split the input into tokens from between +'s and -'s" You would be halfway there. From there you would simply have to look up what kind of arguments the constructor to the tokenizer class takes.

Scroll up and read post by eRaaaa the line of code he gave you will work, +- are treated as two sepparate and not just 1 so it will work for your code.
