Print in new line, java

Question

I have following code :

    System.out.println(" | 1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9");
    System.out.println("----------------------------");
    System.out.println("");

I use println to create a new line. Is it possible to do the same using \n or \r? I tried to add \n to the second println statment and continue printing with the print method but \n does not create a new line.

any ideas?

Answer 1

    String newLine = System.getProperty("line.separator");//This will retrieve line separator dependent on OS.

    System.out.println("line 1" + newLine + "line2");

Answer 2

System.out.println("hello"+"\n"+"world");

Answer 3

Your best shot would be with

String.format("%n")

or

System.out.printf("%n");

It is supposed to print a newline character, depending on the current platform, so it's perfect for the console.

If you are printing to a file, then it depends.

Answer 4

It does create a new line. Try:

System.out.println("---\n###");

Answer 5

You might try adding \r\n instead of just \n. Depending on your operating system and how you are viewing the output, it might matter.

Answer 6

You should use the built in line separator. The advantage is that you don't have to concern what system you code is running on, it will just work.

Since Java 1.7

System.lineSeparator()

Pre Java 1.7

System.getProperty("line.separator")

Answer 7

\n creates a new line in Java. Don't use spaces before or after \n.

Example: printing It creates\na new line outputs

It creates
a new line.

Answer 8

Since you are on Windows, instead of \n use \r\n (carriage return + line feed).

Answer 9

//Case1:
System.out.println(" 1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9" + "\n" + "----------------------------");

//Case2:
System.out.printf(" 1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9" + "\n" + "----------------------------");

//Case3:
System.out.print(" 1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9" + "\n" + "----------------------------");

Answer 10

System.out.print(values[i] + " ");
//in one number be printed

Answer 11

"\n" this is the simple method to separate the continuous String
