title: Find the words start from a special character java
body: <p>I want to find the words that start with a "#" sign in a string in java. There can be spaces between the sign and the word as well.</p>
  
  <p>The string <code>"hi #how are # you"</code> shall give the output as : </p>
  
  <pre><code>how
  you
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have tried this with regex, but still could not find a suitable pattern. Please help me on this.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks. </p>
