We will learn today, How to convert String to Int in java. This is very popular written test question in Java interviews.

For example, We have a String "12345" and now I want to represent it in integer.

We can do conversion in 4 ways.

1) Integer.parseInt method.
2) Integer.valueOf
3) Integer constructor
4) DecimalFormat class

string to int


1) Integer.parseInt method:

parseInt(String string) method is static method and it is present in Integer class.


public class ParseIntExample 
{
    // Java - W3schools
    public static void main(String[] args) 
    {
        String s = "12345";
        int i = Integer.parseInt(s);
        System.out.println("i value : "+i);
    }
}

Output:

i value : 12345

Note: If we pass alphabetic in string to the parseInt method then it will throw NumberFormatException.
For example:


String s = "abcd";
int i = Integer.parseInt(s);

2) Integer.valueOf() method:


valueOf(String string) also a static method in Integer class.



package com.adeepdrive.stringtoint;
public class ValueOfExample
{
    // Java - W3schools
    public static void main(String[] args) 
    {
        String s2 = "1000";
        Integer i2 = Integer.valueOf(s2);
        System.out.println("i2 value: "+i2);
    }
}

Output:

i2 value: 1000

Note: valueOf method will throw NumberFormatException, if we pass alphabetic in string. Internally it uses caching for integers range -128 to +127.

parseInt(String string) returns primitive int.
valueOf(String string) returns wrapper Integer.


3) Integer constructor:

Integer class has a constructor which takes String as argument.

Integer(String s): Constructs a newly allocated Integer object that represents the int value indicated by the String parameter.


package com.adeepdrive.stringtoint;

public class IntegerConstructorEx 
{
    // Java - W3schools
    public static void main(String[] args) 
    {
        String s3 = "999";
        Integer i3 = new Integer(s3);
         // convert Wrapper integer to primitive int
        int int3 = i3.intValue();

        System.out.println("int3 value : " + int3);
    }
}

Output:

int3 value : 999

4) DecimalFormat Class:


DecimalFormat is a concrete subclass of NumberFormat that formats decimal numbers.


package com.adeepdrive.stringtoint;

import java.text.DecimalFormat;
import java.text.ParseException;

public class DecimalFormatExample 
{
    // Java - W3schools
    public static void main(String[] args) throws ParseException 
    {
        String string = "123456";

        // Passing "0" to the DecimalFormat indicates that it accepts only digits.
        DecimalFormat decimalFormat = new DecimalFormat("0");

        // parsing String to Number
        Number number = decimalFormat.parse(string);
     
        // converting Number to primitive int.
        int i4 = number.intValue();

       System.out.println("i4 value : " + i4);
    }
}

Output:

i4 value : 123456
