Syntax error Display numbers with leading zeroes in Java

Display numbers with leading zeroes in Java

To display numbers with leading zeros in Java, useDecimalFormat("000000000000").

Let us first set the format with DecimalFormat class −

DecimalFormat decFormat = new DecimalFormat("000000000000");

Now, let us display some numbers with leading zeros −

String res = decFormat.format(298989);
System.out.println(res);
res = decFormat.format(565);
System.out.println(res);

The following is an example −

Example

 Live Demo

import java.text.DecimalFormat;
public class Demo {
   public static void main(String args[]) {
      DecimalFormat decFormat = new DecimalFormat("000000000000");
      String res = decFormat.format(298989);
      System.out.println(res);
      res = decFormat.format(565);
      System.out.println(res);
      res = decFormat.format(38989);
      System.out.println(res);
      res = decFormat.format(78768768);
      System.out.println(res);
      res = decFormat.format(298989);
      System.out.println(res);
   }
}

Output

000000298989
000000000565
000000038989
000078768768
000000298989
