How do I remove leading white space from a string?
Category: java.lang, viewed: 850 time(s).
The trim method of a String class removes leading and trailing white space from a string. In this example we use a regular expression to remove only the leading white spaces from a string.
package org.kodejava.example.lang;
public class LeadingSpace {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String text = " tattarrattat ";
//
// Using a regular expression to remove only the leading white space in
// a string
//
text = text.replaceAll("^\\s+", "");
System.out.println("Text: " + text);
}
}
