    java parser

    Hello everybody :)
    I've got a question. I want to know how can I write a parser
    "There is a table(dimension : 3 in 4 in 5 meters) in the room"
    in a way that the output would be this:
    Type: table
    Numbers: 1
    Size: 60 M^3
    Position: Room

    I tried substring and split method, but I didn't get the result that I wanted. Could you please help me with this? :( What are the useful methods with which I can write this code?

      Use regular expression.

      But the better way: define an EBNF-like grammar and then use some ready-made method that converts them into a tree of tokens.
      Look in Wikipedia, "Recursive descent parser" for an example.
