I would use somehting like

String Xconcept=concept.substring(1);
int x =0;
try{ 
     x = Integer.parseInt(Xconcept); 
}catch (NumberFormatException nfe){         
} 

IIRC,  NumberFormatException is unchecked so you don't *have* to catch it, if you're sure that the string in question will always represent a valid integer. I tend towards pesimiscm in these things, how4ver, and normally make a point of catching it and not worrying overly about the extra overhead which doesn't  matter so much for my purposes. 

This, I would, guess is a matter of taste as much as anything, and some people may not want to catch it (the exception, that is).
