Question

I want to generate a sequence number starting from 00000001,00000002....(i need all these zero as well)Please help me..Thanks in advance..

Answer 1

You can just generate the sequence numbers as integers and then format them like this:

String.format("%08d", yournumber);

See this question: How can I pad an integers with zeros on the left?

Answer 2

You just need to use string formatting to pad numbers with zeros:

for (int i = 1; i < 1000; i++) {
    String sequence = String.format("%08d", i);
}
