Try replaceAll() method of the String class.

BTW here is the method, return type and parameters.

publicString replaceAll(String regex, String replacement)

Example:

String str ="Hello +-^ my + - friends ^ ^^-- ^^^ +!";

str = str.replaceAll("[-+^]*","");

It should remove all the {'^', '+', '-'} chars that you wanted to remove!
