I have this piece of code:

ed = (EditText) findViewById (R.id.box); 
int x = 10; 
ed.setText (x);

It turns out to be an error. I know I have to change it to string, but how do I do this?

I've tried x.toString(), but it can't be compiled.

    In this case, ask a new question re: `char`. (Hint: the answer is to turn the `char` into a `String`, and `Integer.parseInt()` the string.) – Matt Ball Jul 12 '11 at 04:25
  • why you not try it from google it s so easy to get this answer? – Nikunj Patel Jul 12 '11 at 04:42
  • Please don't ask more than one question at a time in a post. I have edited out your second question, ask this as a new question instead. – Kev Jul 13 '11 at 01:23

Use +, the string concatenation operator:

ed = (EditText) findViewById (R.id.box);
int x = 10;
ed.setText(""+x);

or use String.valueOf(int):

ed.setText(String.valueOf(x));

or use Integer.toString(int):

ed.setText(Integer.toString(x));

try Integer.toString(integer value); method as

ed = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.box);
int x = 10;
ed.setText(Integer.toString(x));

Try using String.format() :

ed = (EditText) findViewById (R.id.box); 
int x = 10; 
ed.setText(String.format("%s",x));

Use this in your code: 

String.valueOf(x);
