Removing Dollar and comma from string

Question

How can we remove dollar sign ($) and all comma(,) from same string? Would it be better to avoid regex?

String liveprice = \"$123,456.78\";

Answer 1

In my case, @Prabhakaran's answer did not work, someone can try this.

String salary = employee.getEmpSalary().replaceAll("[^\\d.]", "");
Float empSalary = Float.parseFloat(salary);
