Question:
Validate if a given string is numeric.
Some examples:
"0"
=> true
" 0.1 "
=> true
"abc"
=> false
"1 a"
=> false
"2e10"
=> true
Note: It is intended for the problem statement to be ambiguous. You should gather all requirements up front before implementing one.
public class Solution {
public boolean isNumber(String s) {
String sRegex = s.trim();
if(sRegex.isEmpty()){
return false;
}
String target = "[+-]?(\\.\\d+|\\d+\\.?)\\d*(e[+-]?\\d+)?";
if(sRegex.matches(target)){
return true;
}else{
return false;
}
}
}
