Is there a way to make the first digit of int always start with 1 in Kotlin
Let's say I have the following class constructor:
class Car(val brand: Brand,val modelName: String, val version: Int){}

If for example, I want the version number to always start with 1. Is there a way to manipulate it in the class body to achieve this ?
Meaning:
val firstdigit:Int = abs(version).ToString().Substring(0,1)

And then parse it to Int. But how to replace the original first digit after that?
I'm just learning Kotlin and I got a bit stuck with this
