Convert String to Double in Java

String to Double in Java


In this lecture we will see the String to Double conversion. There are three ways to convert a String into a double.
1: Using Double.parseDouble
public static double parseDouble(String str) throws NumberFormatException
It returns the double value represented by the string argument and throws following exceptions:
NullPointerException – if the specified String str is null.
NumberFormatException – if the string format is not valid.  For example
If the string is “122.20ab” this exception will be thrown.
String strg="222.102";
Double var= Double.parseDouble(str);
Double variable var value would be 222.102 after conversion.

2: Using Double.valueOf

String strg1="222.102";
 Double var1= Double.valueOf(strg1);
The value of var1 would be 222.102

3: Double class constructor

String strg2="222.102";
Double var2= new Double(strg2);
Double class has a constructor which parses the passed String argument and returns a double value.
public Double(String s) throws NumberFormatException
Constructs a newly allocated Double object that represents the floating-point value of type double represented by the string.

Example:

public class Example{
   public static void main(String args[]){
       //Using parseDouble
       String strg="222.102";
       Double var= Double.parseDouble(strg);
       System.out.println(var);

       String strg1="222.102";
       Double var1= new Double(strg1);
       System.out.println(var1);

       //Using valueOf method
       String strg2="122.202";
       Double var2= Double.valueOf(strg2);
       System.out.println(var2);
   }
}
Output:
122.202
122.202
122.202

Switch Case

Syntax : Switch Case in Java Programming It is alternative to else-if ladder. Switch Case Syntax is similar to – C/C++  Switch. Switch allows you to choose a block of statements to run from a selection of code, based on the return value of an expression. The expression used in the switch statement must return an  int, a String, or an enumerated value . switch (selection) { // value case value1 : // checking value 1 statement ( s ) ; break ; // use to break switch flow if condition match case value2 : // checking value 2 statement ( s ) ; break ; . . case value_n : statement ( s ) ; break ; default : statement ( s ) ; } Different Ways of Using Switch Case : Switch Case Using Integer Case int i=3; switch (i) { case 1 : System . out . println ( "One player is playing this game." ) ; break ; case 2 : System . out . println ( "Two players are playing ...

Inheritance in Java

Inheritance in Java Inheritance  is one of the feature of Object-Oriented Programming (OOPs). Inheritance allows a class to use the properties and methods of another class. In other words, the derived class inherits the states and behaviors from the base class. The derived class is also called subclass and the base class is also known as super-class . The derived class can add its own additional variables and methods. These additional variable and methods differentiates the derived class from the base class. Inheritance is a  compile-time  mechanism. A super-class can have any number of subclasses . But a subclass can have only one superclass. This is because Java does not support multiple inheritance. The superclass and subclass have  “is-a”  relationship between them. Let’s have a look at the example below. Inheritance  Example Let’s consider a superclass  Vehicle . Different vehicles have different features and properties howeve...

User defined exceptions in java

User defined exception in Java User defined exceptions   in java  are also known as  Custom exceptions . Most of the times when we are developing an application in java, we often feel a need to create and throw our own exceptions. These exceptions are known as  User defined or Custom exceptions.  In this tutorial we will see how to create and throw such  exceptions in a java program. Example of User defined exception in Java class MyException extends Exception { String str1 ; MyException ( String str2 ) { str1 = str2 ; } public String toString (){ return ( "Output String = " + str1 ) ; } } class CustomException { public static void main ( String args []){ try { throw new MyException ( "Custom" ); // I'm throwing user defined custom exception above } catch ( MyException exp ){ System . out . print...
