Just as title says. I don't believe it is possible to do this but if it is let me know.
This is needed for a bukkit (minecraft server) plugin I'm writing. I want to take a command: tnt [power]. Where power is the string returned that I want to convert to float.
Thanks
This question is related to
java
Use Float.valueOf(String)
to do the conversion.
The difference between valueOf()
and parseFloat()
is only the return. Use the former if you want a Float
(object) and the latter if you want the float
number.
String s = "3.14";
float f = Float.parseFloat(s);
Try this:
String yourVal = "20.5";
float a = (Float.valueOf(yourVal)).floatValue();
System.out.println(a);
Try this:
String numberStr = "3.5";
Float number = null;
try {
number = Float.parseFloat(numberStr);
} catch (NumberFormatException e) {
System.out.println("numberStr is not a number");
}
Using Float.parseFloat()
?
class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String s = "3.14";
float f = Float.parseFloat(s);
System.out.println(f);
}
}
public class NumberFormatExceptionExample {
private static final String str = "123.234";
public static void main(String[] args){
float i = Float.valueOf(str); //Float.parseFloat(str);
System.out.println("Value parsed :"+i);
}
}
This should resolve the problem.
Can anyone suggest how should we handle this when the string comes in 35,000.00
