string split      2     As String split java lang String regex  int limit  explains      The array returned by this method contains each substring of this string that is terminated by another substring that matches the given expression or is terminated by the end of the string  The substrings in the array are in the order in which they occur in this string  If the expression does not match any part of the input then the resulting array has just one element  namely this string        The limit parameter controls the number of times the pattern is applied and therefore affects the length of the resulting array   If the limit n is greater than zero then the pattern will be applied at most n - 1 times  the array s length will be no greater than n  and the array s last entry will contain all input beyond the last matched delimiter       The string boo and foo  for example  yields the following results with these parameters   Regex Limit    Result       2           boo    and foo          5           boo    and    foo         -2           boo    and    foo    o     5           b         and f            o    -2           b         and f            o     0           b         and f

As many other answers suggest the limit approach  This can be another way  You can use the indexOf method on String which will returns the first Occurance of the given character  Using that index you can get the desired output  String target    apple fruit table price 5    int x  target indexOf       System out println target substring x 1
