Is there a strintok/intstrok function in java?

[JayLo]

I was just wondering if there was a function to check if a string could be parsed as an integer/double or vice versa. Any takers?

[nate]

code:

%Going from string - integer int number = Integer.parseInt("10"); %Going from string - double double number = Double.parseDouble("10.2"); %Going from double or integer - string String word = number.toString();

Hope that helps you

thanks for that review, nate. yes, i know that integer.parseint (mind my capitalization) is to parse strings to int, but i was asking for a command to CHECK if a string variable can be parsed.

for example

code:

String reply; reply = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("This sucks"); insert checker here.

code:

import java.lang.*; import java.io.*; import java.util.*; import java.util.regex.*; class Test {    public static boolean checkForIntegers(String input) {       Pattern intPattern = Pattern.compile("\d+");       Matcher intMatcher = intPattern.matcher(input);       return intMatcher.matches();    }    public static void main(String[] args) {       BufferedReader keyboard = new BufferedReader(          new InputStreamReader(System.in));       String userInput = keyboard.readLine();       if (checkForIntegers(userInput))          System.out.println("\"" + userInput + "\" contains an integer");       else          System.out.println("\"" + userInput + "\" does not contain an integer");    } }
