Description

This method is used to get the primitive data type of a certain String. parseXxx() is a static method and can have one argument or two.

Syntax

Following are all the variants of this method ?

static int parseInt(String s)
static int parseInt(String s, int radix)

Parameters

Here is the detail of parameters ?

• s ? This is a string representation of decimal.

• radix ? This would be used to convert String s into integer.

Return Value

• parseInt(String s) ? This returns an integer (decimal only).

• parseInt(int i) ? This returns an integer, given a string representation of decimal, binary, octal, or hexadecimal (radix equals 10, 2, 8, or 16 respectively) numbers as input.

Throws

NumberFormatException : if the string does not contain a parsable integer.

Example

public class ParseIntMethod {

   public static void main(String args[]) {
      int x =Integer.parseInt("18");
      double c = Double.parseDouble("12");
      int b = Integer.parseInt("444",16);

      System.out.println(x);
      System.out.println(c);
      System.out.println(b);
   }
}

This will produce the following result ?

Output

18
12.0
1092

Example

public class ParseIntMethod {
public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // parsing different strings
        int z = Integer.parseInt("654",8);
        int a = Integer.parseInt("-FF", 16);
        long l = Long.parseLong("2158611234",10);

        System.out.println(z);
        System.out.println(a);
        System.out.println(l);

        // run-time NumberFormatException will occur here
        // "Hello" is not a parsable string
        int x = Integer.parseInt("Hello",8);

        // run-time NumberFormatException will occur here
        // (for octal(8),allowed digits are [0-7])
        int y = Integer.parseInt("99",8);

    }
}

This will produce the following result ?

Output
