Regex, removing "" from a string

Question

I have a String like this

"<xxxxxx125xxxx>

<yy2yy>2</yy2yy>
<yy3yy>3</yy3yy>
<yyhhhhyy>50</yyyyy>
<yyyyy>123</yyyyy>"

How can I have an output like:

2 3 50 123

Well, i'm using Android, but I think that it's a global regex right?

Are you trying to reinvent `xml` or `html` parser? If yes then before you go any farther consider checking already created ones like Jsoup which seems to do exactly what you want: `String data = Jsoup.parse(data).text()` — Pshemo, May 03 '14 at 17:52
I'm trying to get the data inside a table html tags. The tags can vary inside '<' and '>' — Douglas Fornaro, May 03 '14 at 17:57

Simply use <[^>]+> regex.

    String[] string = new String[] { "<yy2yy>2</yy2yy>", "<yy3yy>3</yy3yy>",
            "<yyhhhhyy>50</yyyyy>", "<yyyyy>123</yyyyy>" };

    for (String s : string) {
        System.out.println(s.replaceAll("<[^>]+>", ""));
    }

output:
