Answer 2

It should be like:

tv.setText(getString(R.string.Converasation)+" Hello ");

FYI, You can use either getString(int) or getText(int) to retrieve a string.

Answer 3

@Mudassir everything works great. for me it's:

  display.setText(getText(R.string.counting_result) + " "+ counter);

Answer 4

Try following code:

  Resources res = context.getResources();
  float floatConverasation = 1.1f;
  String strfloatConverasation = "HELLO";
  tv.setText(String.format(Locale.ENGLISH,"%s %f %s",
    res.getString(R.string.conversation), floatConverasation, strfloatConverasation));
