long to String

hi,

Sorry about this question, but i'm a complete noob with Processing. I tried to find a sollution on this forum, but couldn't find anything that fixes it.
I want to make a string of a list of filesizes. The filenames where easy, but i tried this, because i saw that if i added the "s" it removes a .0 after the file size

   long sizeFile = f.length();
   String imagesSize = "s"+sizeFile;
   println(imagesSize);

output:

s149147
s171974
s157381

If i remove the "s" it gives an error and says it's an long value.

println(f.length());

gives:

149147.0
171974.0
157381.0

I don't see any places into the string like the image files:
[117] "img97.jpg"
[118] "img98.jpg"
[119] "img99.jpg"

Does "String imagesSize = "" + sizeFile;" do what you need?

You could also use str() to convert from a number to a String (if I understand your question).
