How to check if a string contains only numbers in Java

Sometimes we deal with strings, and we need to determine whether a string is a valid number or not. In this tutorial, we are going to see how to check that a string contains only numbers in Java.

To check if the string contains only numbers, in the try{} block we use the parseFloat() method of the Float class to convert the string to a Float.

If it returns an error, that means the string is not a number.
