3. [ C++ ] Creating a string
3. [ Java ] Creating a string
The static method String.format takes a format string and a list of
numbers (or pretty much anything). The format string includes %d spaces
where the integers should go or %f places for the floating point numbers.

to use.

3. [ C# ] Creating a string
The static method String.Format takes a format string and a list of
numbers (or pretty much anything). The format string includes {0} spaces
where the first parameter is included.
We can specify the total number of characters to use (the number is
right justified in this space). We can specify the number of decimal places
to use. In this example there are 8 spaces and 2 decimal places
{0,8:n2}
