Answer 1

You should use the substring() method of String object.

Here is an example code:

Assumption: I am assuming here that you want to retrieve the string till the first parenthesis

String strTest = "manchester united(with nice players)";
/*Get the substring from the original string, with starting index 0, and ending index as position of th first parenthesis - 1 */
String strSub = strTest.subString(0,strTest.getIndex("(")-1);
