How to replace ascii characters present in between a String using java

Question

I have a string Hi , Thank you for opening an account with XYZ. We're excited to have you on board.

I need to get rid of ' from the string and get equivalent character in place of it which is apostrophe (').

I need general code to replace the ascii characters.

These aren't "ascii characters", they are HTML entities. – Mark Rotteveel Mar 19 '19 at 11:28 — Mark Rotteveel, Mar 19 '19 at 11:28

Use String.replace():

String str = "Hi , Thank you for opening an account with XYZ. We&#39;re excited to have you on board.";
str.replace("&#39;","\'");

Here is example

public class Guru99Ex1 {
public static void main(String args[]) {
    String S1 = new String("the quick fox jumped");
    System.out.println("Original String is ': " + S1);
    System.out.println("String after replacing 'fox' with 'dog': " + S1.replace("fox", "dog"));
    System.out.println("String after replacing all 't' with 'a': " + S1.replace('t', 'a'));

}

}
