Int To String Java

Java Convert String To Integer

Different ways for Integer to String Conversions In Java

1. Convert using Integer.toString(int) The Integer class has a static method that returns a String object representing the specified int parameter.

   Syntax :

   
    public static String toString(int i)
    

   The argument i is converted and returned as a string instance. If the number is negative, the sign will be preserved. Example :

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int a = 1234;     int b = -1234;     String str1 = Integer.toString(a);     String str2 = Integer.toString(b);     System.out.println("String str1 = " + str1);      System.out.println("String str2 = " + str2);   } }

   Output:

   
    String str1 = 1234
    String str2 = -1234
    

2. Convert using String.valueOf(int) Example :

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int c = 1234;     String str3 = String.valueOf(c);     System.out.println("String str3 = " + str3);   } }

   or

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     String str3 = String.valueOf(1234);     System.out.println("String str3 = " + str3);   } }

   Output:

   
    String str3 = 1234
    

3. Convert using Integer(int).toString() This methods uses instance of Integer class to invoke it’s toString() method.

   Example :

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int d = 1234;     Integer obj = new Integer(d);     String str4 = obj.toString();     System.out.println("String str4 = " + str4);   } }

   or

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int d = 1234;     String str4 = new Integer(d).toString();     System.out.println("String str4 = " + str4);   } }

   or

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     String str4 = new Integer(1234).toString();     System.out.println("String str4 = " + str4);   } }

   Output:

   
    String str4 = 1234
    

   If your variable is of primitive type (int), it is better to use Integer.toString(int) or String.valueOf(int). But if your variable is already an instance of Integer (wrapper class of the primitive type int), it is better to just invoke it’s toString() method as shown above. This method is not efficient as instance of Integer class is created before conversion is performed.

4. Convert using DecimalFormat The class java.text.DecimalFormat is a class that formats a number to a String. Example :

   import java.text.DecimalFormat; class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int e = 12345;     DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("#");     String str5 = df.format(e);     System.out.println(str5);   } }

   Output:

   
    String str5 = 12345
    

   or

   import java.text.DecimalFormat; class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int e = 12345;     DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("#,###");     String Str5 = df.format(e);     System.out.println(Str5);   } }

   Output:

   
    String str5 = 12,345
    

   Using this method, you can specify the number of decimal places and comma separator for readability.

5. Convert using StringBuffer or StringBuilder StringBuffer is a class that is used to concatenate multiple values into a String. StringBuilder works similarly but not thread safe like StringBuffer.

   StringBuffer Example

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int f = 1234;     StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();     sb.append(f);     String str6 = sb.toString();     System.out.println("String str6 = " + str6);   } }

   or

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     String str6 = new StringBuffer().append(1234).toString();     System.out.println("String str6 = " + str6);   } }

   Output:

   
    String str6 = 1234
    

   StringBuilder Example

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int g = 1234;     StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();     sb.append(g);     String str7 = sb.toString();     System.out.println("String str7 = " + str7);   } }

   or

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     String str7 = new StringBuilder().append(1234).toString();     System.out.println("String str7 = " + str7);   } }

   Output:

   
    String str7 = 1234
    

6. Convert with special radix All of the examples above use the base (radix) 10. Following are convenient methods to convert to binary, octal, and hexadecimal system. Arbitrary custom number system is also supported.

   Examples :

   Binary

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int h = 255;     String binaryString = Integer.toBinaryString(h);     System.out.println(binaryString);   } }

   Output:

   
    11111111
    

   11111111 is the binary representation of the number 255.

   Ocatal

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int i = 255;     String octalString = Integer.toOctalString(i);     System.out.println(octalString);   } }

   Output:

   
    377
    

   377 is the octal representation of the number 255.

   Hexadecimal

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int j = 255;     String hexString = Integer.toHexString(j);     System.out.println(hexString);   } }

   Output:

   
    ff
    

   ff is the hexadecimal representation of the number 255.

   Custom Base/Radix you can use any other custom base/radix when converting an int to String.

   Following example uses the base 7 number system.

   class GfG {   public static void main(String args[])   {     int k = 255;     String customString = Integer.toString(k, 7);     System.out.println(customString);   } }

   Output:

   
    513
    

   513 is the representation of the number 255 when written in the base 7 system.
