Apply the # flag to the %o, %x, %e, and %f format specifiers. If you want to display the hexadecimal number with a 0x prefix, then precede the %x specifier with #.Preceding the %x specifier with a #, the hexadecimal number will be printed with a 0x prefix.Let us see an example wherein $e is used. It includes a decimal point, even if the decimal digits are not present −Exampleimport java.util.Formatter; public class Demo { public static void main(String args[]) { Formatter f = new Formatter(); System.out.println(f.format("%#e", 5F)); } }Output5.000000e+00
