import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;
public class ExtractingDigits {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter sample text: ");
String data = sc.nextLine();
//Regular expression to match digits in a string
String regex = "\d+";
//Creating a pattern object
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex);
//Creating a Matcher object
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(data);
System.out.println("Digits in the given string are: ");
while(matcher.find()) {
System.out.print(matcher.group()+" ");
}
}
}
Output

String data = "abc12def334hjdsk7438dbds3y388";
//Regular expression to digits
String regex = "([0-9]+)";
//Creating a pattern object
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex);
//Creating a Matcher object
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(data);
System.out.println("Digits in the given string are: ");
while(matcher.find()) {
System.out.print(matcher.group()+" ");
