This is a example of how java string methods have built in regex

Code:

String name = "jerome443scott449II";

name = name.replaceAll("[0-9]+", " "); //[0-9] means any number the + sign after it means keep going until not a number encounter then replace those numbers with a space

System.out.println(name);

I'd like to practice lots of regular expressions in BeanShell, so I may shorten this to one line like this.

System.out.println("jerome443scott449II".replaceAll("[0-9]+", " "));

Very good function. Other programming languages have replace function too. If they don't you can make it !
