Question

I need to parse this string and extract bold number out od it .
I dont have a suitable regex for
1. useInput can be
=”0067711990999999*1955*0515070999999999999N9+01*23*1+99999999..”;

Pattern pattern;
    String regex="\\s*-?\\d+(?:\\s*[-+/*]\\s*-?\\d+)+\\s*";
    pattern=Pattern.compile(regex);
    Matcher match = pattern.matcher(userInput);

The problem is i dont find any regex to match the bold String.
