How can I parse the string into multiple lines like this in Java?

PER
IP

Answer 1

You could use a regex replacement:

String input = "PER*IP**TE*1234567890*EM*[email protected]";
String output = input.replaceAll("\\*", "\n");
System.out.println(output);

This prints:

PER
IP

TE
1234567890
EM
[email protected]
