How to delete a specific character from a string?

Question

I'm reading some integer values from a webpage using Java through Jsoup library. In the website integer represented as xxx,xxx. I need this set of data to be written in a .csv file so later it can be accessed through Excel for further work.

How to remove this comma in the middle so it doesn't affect the .csv file?

thisIsTheString.replace(",","");... maybe show some effort from your side — Danny., Mar 19 '14 at 14:39
I was completely out of mind with that.... I thought I should go the index of that comma and manually delete it — Zeemaan, Mar 19 '14 at 15:27

   if you want to remove any charactor from a string you can use it.

   String name="sri,sha,ila,m";

   name = name.replace(",","");

   Output : srishailam

It must be a string when you get it so could use firstInstanceOf to find and then remove it

I believe that string.replace(",", "") will solve your problem. This question will help String not replacing characters.
