Printing part of a String after split





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}

For example I have



String test = "www/testing/how/FileName.txt"; (this is a server url)



from here... I want to print out just



String test1 = "www/testing/how";



so that I can create a directory of test1 and add the Filename.txt.



Can someone help?

You can use lastIndexOf()



String s= "www/testing/how/FileName.txt";

System.out.println(s.substring(0, s.lastIndexOf('/')));

    This is easy enough to handle using a one-liner, with the help of String#replaceAll:



    String test = "www/testing/how/FileName.txt";
    
System.out.println(test.replaceAll("/[^/]+\.\w+$", ""));
    

    
www/testing/how


    The regex pattern I used targets the final path separator, and everything after it, for removal, leaving behind the output you expect.

                      Image
                      0 I found a lot of questions abount appendices and ToC. Many users want appendices to be grouped in an Appendix part, however some problems arise with ToC, hyperref, PDF viewer bookmarks, and so on. There are different solutions which require extra packages, command patching and other extra code, however none of them satisfies me. I almost found an easy way to accomplish a good result, where appendices are added to bookmarks in the right way and hyperref links point to the right page. However, the number of the "Appendix" part page is wrong (it's the number of appendix A). Is there any EASY way to fix that? This is a MWE: documentclass{book} usepackage[nottoc,notlot,notlof]{tocbibind} usepackage{hyperref} begin{document} frontmatter tableofcontents mainmatter part{First} chapter{
