异常开销很大，但在这种情况下，RegEx需要更长的时间。下面的代码显示了两个函数的简单测试——一个使用异常，一个使用正则表达式。在我的机器上，RegEx版本比异常慢10倍。

import java.util.Date;


public class IsNumeric {

public static boolean isNumericOne(String s) {
    return s.matches("-?\\d+(\\.\\d+)?");  //match a number with optional '-' and decimal.      
}

public static boolean isNumericTwo(String s) {
    try {
        Double.parseDouble(s);
        return true;
    } catch (Exception e) {
        return false;
    }
}

public static void main(String [] args) {

    String test = "12345.F";

    long before = new Date().getTime();     
    for(int x=0;x<1000000;++x) {
        //isNumericTwo(test);
        isNumericOne(test);
    }
    long after = new Date().getTime();

    System.out.println(after-before);

}

}

这是我对这个问题的回答。

一个方便的方法，你可以使用任何类型的解析器来解析任何字符串:isParsable(对象解析器，字符串str)。解析器可以是Class或对象。这也将允许你使用你写的自定义解析器，应该适用于任何场景，例如:

isParsable(Integer.class, "11");
isParsable(Double.class, "11.11");
Object dateFormater = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd G 'at' HH:mm:ss z");
isParsable(dateFormater, "2001.07.04 AD at 12:08:56 PDT");

下面是我的代码和方法描述。

import java.lang.reflect.*;

/**
 * METHOD: isParsable<p><p>
 * 
 * This method will look through the methods of the specified <code>from</code> parameter
 * looking for a public method name starting with "parse" which has only one String
 * parameter.<p>
 * 
 * The <code>parser</code> parameter can be a class or an instantiated object, eg:
 * <code>Integer.class</code> or <code>new Integer(1)</code>. If you use a
 * <code>Class</code> type then only static methods are considered.<p>
 * 
 * When looping through potential methods, it first looks at the <code>Class</code> associated
 * with the <code>parser</code> parameter, then looks through the methods of the parent's class
 * followed by subsequent ancestors, using the first method that matches the criteria specified
 * above.<p>
 * 
 * This method will hide any normal parse exceptions, but throws any exceptions due to
 * programmatic errors, eg: NullPointerExceptions, etc. If you specify a <code>parser</code>
 * parameter which has no matching parse methods, a NoSuchMethodException will be thrown
 * embedded within a RuntimeException.<p><p>
 * 
 * Example:<br>
 * <code>isParsable(Boolean.class, "true");<br>
 * isParsable(Integer.class, "11");<br>
 * isParsable(Double.class, "11.11");<br>
 * Object dateFormater = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd G 'at' HH:mm:ss z");<br>
 * isParsable(dateFormater, "2001.07.04 AD at 12:08:56 PDT");<br></code>
 * <p>
 * 
 * @param parser    The Class type or instantiated Object to find a parse method in.
 * @param str   The String you want to parse
 * 
 * @return true if a parse method was found and completed without exception
 * @throws java.lang.NoSuchMethodException If no such method is accessible

public static boolean isParsable(Object parser, String str) {
    Class theClass = (parser instanceof Class? (Class)parser: parser.getClass());
    boolean staticOnly = (parser == theClass), foundAtLeastOne = false;
    Method[] methods = theClass.getMethods();

    // Loop over methods
    for (int index = 0; index < methods.length; index++) {
        Method method = methods[index];

        // If method starts with parse, is public and has one String parameter.

        }
    }

    if(foundAtLeastOne) return false;
    else throw new RuntimeException(new NoSuchMethodException());
}


/**

public static boolean willParse(Object parser, String str) {

这是我知道的最快的方法来检查字符串是否为数字:

public static boolean isNumber(String str){
  int i=0, len=str.length();
  boolean a=false,b=false,c=false, d=false;
  if(i<len && (str.charAt(i)=='+' || str.charAt(i)=='-')) i++;
  while( i<len && isDigit(str.charAt(i)) ){ i++; a=true; }
  if(i<len && (str.charAt(i)=='.')) i++;
  while( i<len && isDigit(str.charAt(i)) ){ i++; b=true; }
  if(i<len && (str.charAt(i)=='e' || str.charAt(i)=='E') && (a || b)){ i++; c=true; }
  if(i<len && (str.charAt(i)=='+' || str.charAt(i)=='-') && c) i++;
  while( i<len && isDigit(str.charAt(i)) ){ i++; d=true;}
  return i==len && (a||b) && (!c || (c && d));
}
static boolean isDigit(char c){
  return c>='0' && c<='9';
}

这是一个简单的检查示例:

public static boolean isNumericString(String input) {
    boolean result = false;

    if(input != null && input.length() > 0) {
        char[] charArray = input.toCharArray();

        for(char c : charArray) {
            if(c >= '0' && c <= '9') {
                // it is a digit
                result = true;
            } else {
                result = false;
                break;
            }
        }
    }

    return result;
}

要匹配仅包含ASCII数字的以10为基数的正整数，请使用:

public static boolean isNumeric(String maybeNumeric) {
    return maybeNumeric != null && maybeNumeric.matches("[0-9]+");
}

如果你们用下面的方法来检查:

public static boolean isNumeric(String str) {
    NumberFormat formatter = NumberFormat.getInstance();
    ParsePosition pos = new ParsePosition(0);
    formatter.parse(str, pos);
    return str.length() == pos.getIndex();
}

然后输入非常长的字符串会发生什么，比如我调用这个方法:

System.out.println(isNumeric("94328948243242352525243242524243425452342343948923"));

结果是“真”，也是一个太大的数字! 如果你使用regex来检查，同样的事情也会发生! 所以我宁愿使用“解析”方法来检查，就像这样:

public static boolean isNumeric(String str) {
    try {
        int number = Integer.parseInt(str);
        return true;
    } catch (Exception e) {
        return false;
    }
}

结果就如我所料!
