How to add percent sign to NSString

Question

I want to have a percentage sign in my string after a digit. Something like this: 75%.

How can I have this done? I tried:

[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d\%", someDigit]; 

But it didn't work for me.

Answer 1

The code for percent sign in NSString format is %%. This is also true for NSLog() and printf() formats.

Answer 2

The escape code for a percent sign is "%%", so your code would look like this

[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d%%", someDigit];
