I would like to split it along the hashtags and then get the split information.

Answer 1

If you are interested in learning something,

Following Steps will help you.

• First of all Use BufferReader to read file
• Read one line at time by the use of readLine() and store it to String
• Now your String will have line i.eJulie Resnekov#212#32#90#63.2#62.5
• Use split() method to split the String content by #
• Now you will have array of String which is retrived after split.

Otherwise COPY+PASTE is the second option.

Answer 2

Use split method

String string = "Julie Resnekov#212#32#90#63.2#62.5";
String[] parts = string.split("#");

for(String part : parts){
System.out.println(part);
}

Answer 3

String[] split = info.split("#");

In your case this would yield an array containing the name in split[0] and the numbers in the rest of the array.
