What does the 9 do in this line?
Code: Select all
System.out.printf("\"$%(,9.2f\"", -1222.2);
If I change it to a 4
e.g.
Code: Select all
System.out.printf("\"$%(,4.2f\"", -1222.2);
The output is exactly the same. Both output
Thanks.

That's because the output already has 9 characters. Try 10 or more instead of 9. Then you will see the difference:
System.out.printf("\"$%(,12.2f\"", -1222.2);
HTH,

With reference to :
System.out.printf("\"%+07d\"", 100); // 7 is the total width. It will print: +000100
Please confirm that we cannot use "-" left justification when we use zero padding. Which means we cannot use "-" and "0" at the same time.

Not sure I understand you correctly. Can you please write a line of code to show what you mean?
