substring

javanianewbie

Hello,

I am reading in a file and breaking it up using substring. This is working well except for the last part I need to read in needs to be an integer, not a string. I was curious if it is possible to use substring to break up both strings and ints.

Here is the code I have:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

  
String input = "";
 
while(readFile.hasNextLine())

            {

                input = readFile.nextLine();

                sName = input.substring(0, 14);

                String sCap = input.substring(15,29);

                String sAbbr = input.substring(30,32);

                String sPop = input.substring(32,40);

                String sReg = input.substring(40,56);

                int sRegNum = input.substring (56); // this breaks
 
               State lilState = new State(sName.trim(), sCap, sAbbr,

                        sPop, sReg, sRegNum);

               stateObject1[lilState.getRegionNum()-1].queueInsert(lilState);

             }

Thanks for any help that can be offered.

See the parseInt() method of the Integer class.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Will I be able to use the parse int method in the same while statement using substring, or will I have to read it seperate?

Think I figured out how to parse it

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

int sRegNum = Integer.parseInt(input.substring(56));

Thanks for the help!
