                                                    char delim)

creates an array of Strings by parsing the input String using the delimiter

splitStrings

public static final java.lang.String[] splitStrings(java.lang.String text,
                                                    java.lang.String delim)

creates an array of Strings by parsing the input String using the delimiter

getNumOccurances

public static final int getNumOccurances(java.lang.String text,
                                         char delim)

gets the number of times the delimiter is present in the String

getNumOccurances

public static final int getNumOccurances(java.lang.String text,
                                         java.lang.String delim)

gets the number of times the delimiter is present in the String

countNonEmpty

counts the number of non-null elements that have a trimed length of at least 1

capitalize

public static final java.lang.String capitalize(java.lang.String text)

returns the String with the first character capitalized so wisconsin => Wisconsin

getMaxLineCount

public static final int getMaxLineCount(java.lang.String text)

finds the longest string and returns the number of characters

htmlEncode

public static final java.lang.String htmlEncode(java.lang.String nonHTMLsrc)
