How to replace a substring of a string [duplicate]

Answer 1

2 things you should note:

1. Strings in Java are immutable to so you need to store return value of thereplace method call in another String.
2. You don't really need a regex here, just a simple call to String#replace(String) will do the job.

So just use this code:

String replaced = string.replace("abcd", "ffffdd");
