This is  a C statement :-

printf("%10.2f",x);

The same thing can be done in a more understandable way in c++ :-

cout << setw(10) << setprecision(2) << showpoint << x;

But doing that in Java is neither short nor simple :-

java.text.NumberFormat formatter = java.text.NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
formatter.setMinimumFractionDigits(2);
formatter.setMaximumFractionDigits(2);
String s = formatter.format(x);
for (int i = s.length(); i < 10; i++)
   System.out.print(' ');
System.out.print(s);
