Java String remove all non numeric characters

Question

Trying to remove all letters and characters that are not 0-9 and a period   I m using Character isDigit   but it also removes decimal  how can I also keep the decimal

Currency decimal separator can be different from Locale to another. It could be dangerous to consider . as separator always. i.e.

+------------------------------------+
¦    Locale      ¦      Sample       ¦
¦----------------+-------------------¦
¦ USA            ¦ $1,222,333.44 USD ¦
¦ United Kingdom ¦ £1.222.333,44 GBP ¦
¦ European       ¦ €1.333.333,44 EUR ¦
+------------------------------------+

I think the proper way is:

Get decimal character via DecimalFormatSymbols by default Locale or specified one.
Cook regex pattern with decimal character in order to obtain digits only

And here how I am solving it:

code:

import java.text.DecimalFormatSymbols;
import java.util.Locale;

    public static String getDigit(String quote, Locale locale) {
    char decimalSeparator;
    if (locale == null) {
        decimalSeparator = new DecimalFormatSymbols().getDecimalSeparator();
    } else {
        decimalSeparator = new DecimalFormatSymbols(locale).getDecimalSeparator();
    }

    String regex = "[^0-9" + decimalSeparator + "]";
    String valueOnlyDigit = quote.replaceAll(regex, "");
    try {
        return valueOnlyDigit;
    } catch (ArithmeticException | NumberFormatException e) {
        Log.e(TAG, "Error in getMoneyAsDecimal", e);
        return null;
    }
    return null;
}

I hope that may help,'.

I would use a regex   String text    -jaskdh2367sd 27askjdfh23   String digits   text replaceAll    0-9          System out println digits     prints  2367 2723   You might like to keep - as well for negative numbers

For the Android folks coming here for Kotlin  val dirtyString     Account Balance   -12 345 67  val cleanString   dirtyString replace      d    toRegex          Output   cleanString    12345 67      This could then be safely converted toDouble    toFloat   or toInt   if needed

Simple way without using Regex   Adding an extra character check for dot     will solve the requirement   public static String getOnlyNumerics String str        if  str    null            return null            StringBuffer strBuff   new StringBuffer        char c      for  int i   0  i  lt  str length     i              c   str charAt i           if  Character isDigit c     c                       strBuff append c                       return strBuff toString
