Java coding standard- Number of methods in a class

Question

Can anybody please tell me that what is the standard range for number of methods in a class. I need to refcator a very old code which contains large number of methods (50 to 100) in each class. Please help.

I got a huge screen and uses a small font ;)I have a wiiiiide screen. :D What's the maximum number of statements in a line?
I think that a method starts to get long when it's
more than 20 lines.Yepp, but I usually don't count line wraps. I'm not going to create another method for something like
if (abc == null
  && xyz == 17
  && udsfh == false
  try {
    whatever();
  } catch (StupidExceptionA e) {
  } catch (StupidExceptionB e) {
  } catch (StupidExceptionC e) {
  } catch (StupidExceptionD e) {
}It's annoying, but it also looks stupid to have a method that does nothing else but calling another method and catching the exceptions. That clutters the entire class.
