String replace

[Dins19]

Hi i am only just beginning in Java.

Suppose i want to replace '-->' with 'then', ':' with '==' and '-' with '&&' in the line below, how should i go about it??

A:B - C - E:F --> L

If anyone could please help.

Good question, well you can't do it with String.replace() as that only lets you change one char at a time and can't recognise strings (so to speak). There was a similar thread to this afew weeks ago, I shall see if i can hunt it down.
