How to add Leading Zero with getMonth in Java (Android)
android, date, getdate, java
Solution
Your problem is that your `'0'` `char` is being coerced to an integer. Since `'0'` has an ASCII value of `48`, you're getting `48 + 2 = 50`.
Note that what you're trying to do won't work - you can't add a leading `0` to `month`, as `month` is a number. A leading zero only makes sense in a string representation of a number.
As explained in this answer, here's how to produce a zero-padded number:
String.format("%02d", month);
Problem
I'm using an int variable: ``` month = dp.getMonth() + 1; ``` currently getting an output of "2" and when I do the following: ``` if (month<10){ month = '0'+month; }; ``` I get: 50.
