format specifier for int in java code example

Example 1: formatting an integer in java

Default formatting:

String.format("%d", 93); // prints 93


Specifying a width:

String.format("|%20d|", 93); // prints: |                  93|


Left-justifying within the specified width:

String.format("|%-20d|", 93); // prints: |93                  |


Pad with zeros:

String.format("|%020d|", 93); // prints: |00000000000000000093|

                String s1=sc.next();
                int x=sc.nextInt();
                //Complete this line
