How to take only year from Date in string format?

I will get Date in string format like 11/01/2017. From that string I want to take only the year. Like 

String stringDate="11/01/2017";

the output I want is just "2017";

How to split that string?

Thanks in advance.

If you have a String and will always be dd/mm/yyyy, then you can simply do:

dateString.substring(6)

You can use this as well.

String input="11/1/2017";
String year=input .substring(input .length()-4);

One option would be to split on forward slash and retain the third part:

String input = "11/01/2017";
String year = input.split("/")[2];
