Miscellaneous, Programming & Code


To replace all occurences of a given character :

String.replaceAll("n", ""); // Remove all n
String.replaceAll("n", "r"); // Replace n by r

To replace a character at a specified position :

public static String replaceCharAt(String s, int pos, char c) {
return s.substring(0,pos) + c + s.substring(pos+1);
}

To remove a character :

public static String removeChar(String s, char c) {
String r = "";
for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i ++) {
if (s.charAt(i) != c) r += s.charAt(i);
}
return r;
}

To remove a character at a specified position:

public static String removeCharAt(String s, int pos) {
return s.substring(0,pos)+s.substring(pos+1);
}
