Integer value in TextView

Consider using String#format with proper format specifications (%d or %f) instead.

int value = 10;

textView.setText(String.format("%d",value));

This will handle fraction separator and locale specific digits properly


TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText(String.valueOf(number));

or

tv.setText(""+number);

If you want it to display on your layout you should

For example:

activity_layout.XML file

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/example_tv"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

On the activity.java file

    final TextView textView = findViewById(R.id.example_tv);
    textView.setText(Integer.toString(yourNumberHere));

In the first line on the XML file you can see:

android:id="@+id/example_tv"

That's where you get the id to change in the .java file for the findViewById(R.id.example_tv)

Hope I made myself clear, I just went with this explanation because a lot of times people seem to know the ".setText()" method, they just can't change the text in the "UI".


EDIT Since this is a fairly old answer, and Kotlin is the preferred language for Android development, here's its counterpart.

With the same XML layout:

You can either use the findViewbyId() or use Kotlin synthetic properties:

findViewById<TextView>(R.id.example_tv).text = yourNumberHere.toString()

// Or

example_tv?.text = yourNumberHere.toString()

The toString() is from Kotlin's Any object (comparable to the Java Object):

The root of the Kotlin class hierarchy. Every Kotlin class has Any as a superclass.


TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText("" + 4);
