Anyone knows how can I fill the placeholder `total` with the value for this string: `"%{total} price for the Pizza"`

val total =123
val message = "% $total price for the Pizza"
print(message)

I didn't get you can you share the kotlin code?

Or in case you can't modify the string to change it from using % to instead using valid <https://kotlinlang.org/docs/idioms.html#string-interpolation|Kotlin string interpolation> you might have to settle for something like `.replace(..., ...)`:

ahh that's a bit hacky to use `replace` for this. I thought there is something simple already  in kotlin for filling this  `%{}`  inside string

<@U01D43Q2PLZ> my string is different than you. I already know your case

`val total = 5`
`"5 price for the Pizza"`

The string you have "%{total} price for the Pizza"
Is coming from strings file or from an api
