How to set string/number length?

[Ike]

I have to print a value in aJFrame, but since it's double it is too long.
I'm currently using:

g.drawString("ValueOfSOmething = " + doubleNumber, x, y );


What should I do to set length?

You can use the String method format().

Something like g.drawString(String.format("ValueOfSOmething = %.2f", doubleNumber), x, y );
