0 points
In this article, we would like to show you how to remove suffix from string in Java.
Quick solution:
xxxxxxxxxx1
String text = "ABCD";2
3
// replace the last two characters with empty string4
String result1 = text.replaceAll(".{0,2}$", "");5
6
// remove the last two characters7
String result2 = text.substring(0, text.length() - 2);8
9
System.out.println(result1); // AB10
System.out.println(result2); // AB
In this example, we use replaceAll() method with regex to replace the last two letters (CD suffix) with an empty string.
xxxxxxxxxx1
public class Example {2
3
public static void main(String[] args) {4
String text = "ABCD";5
6
// replace the last two characters with empty string7
String result = text.replaceAll(".{0,2}$", "");8
9
System.out.println(result); // AB10
}11
}In this example, we use substring() method to remove the last two letters (CD suffix) from the text.
