Post subject: | Splitting strings from a list |
I need a little help, very confused. I have a List<String> and I need to get at the stuff inside the list so I can split it. I know how to split strings. I'm just not sure how to split the strings in a list. I tried splitting the List<String>, my program doesn't like that. I've tried moving it to a string using iterators but all the commas got lost. Any help is very appreciated. Thank you. |

I'm not sure I understand entirely. What are you trying to get out of the List <String> ? What do you need it for? If you need to retrieve a given String from the list, you can just use listName.get(index) to retrieve the String at index from the list. Indicies start from zero. |

The listNam.get() actually helps a lot. The book I'm looking at doesn't have that in it for some reason. Thank you, the was essentially a breakthrough. Thanks. |

You can consult the javadoc on the List interface in order to see what's available to all the Collections using that interface: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/List.html Here's the docs on String, should have whatever else you're looking for: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/String.html |
