Android/Java - how to output multiple variables per line?

Question

Java

I'm making a simple coffee ordering app based on one course from Udacity , just adding my own features, because they leave a lot of "holes".
In general, the user there clicked on the required number of cups of coffee, added cream and / or chocolate as desired, and pressed the "order" button.
Depending on what he clicked there, the strings.xml file stored lines like:

<string name="total_coffee_cost">You ordered %1$d cups of coffee. \nPrepare to pay $%2$d. \nThank you!</string>
    <string name="total_coffee_cost_zero">You have not ordered any cup of coffee. \nTry to choose again. \nThank you!</string>

All this was displayed in MainActivity.java via setText(), depending on the amount of selected coffee with toppings (there are nine if-else branches, I give two so as not to clog):

private TextView createOrderSummary(View view){
        CheckBox whippedCreamCheckBox = findViewById(R.id.whipped_cream_checkbox);
        hasWhippedCream = whippedCreamCheckBox.isChecked();

        CheckBox chocolateCheckBox = findViewById(R.id.chocolate_checkbox);
        hasChocolate = chocolateCheckBox.isChecked();
        
        TextView priceMessage = findViewById(R.id.price_text_view);
        if (numberOfCoffees == 0)
            priceMessage.setText(getString(R.string.total_coffee_cost_zero));
        ....
        else if ((numberOfCoffees > 1) && (!hasWhippedCream) && (!hasChocolate))
        priceMessage.setText(getString(R.string.total_coffee_cost, numberOfCoffees, numberOfCoffees * priceOfCup));
        ....
        return priceMessage;
}

Everything was fine, but then in the course they decided to add another variable - the username that he enters when ordering. And it turned out that I can’t just take and add a third variable to the line, for example, by doing this:

<string name="total_coffee_cost">Hi, %1$s! You ordered %2$d cups of coffee. \nPrepare to pay $%3$d. \nThank you!</string>

Googling, I found out that the setText () method cannot work with three or more parameters ...
How to be? The Udacity course doesn't bother with this - they output data directly, without storing strings in strings.xml, without using setText().
There must be a normal solution, because these parameters may not be three, like mine, but much more ...

What do the parameters of the setText() method have to do with it? You are passing arguments to getString() . It can have any number of formatArgs arguments. Read about varargs.
I'm guessing you're just a little confused. For convenience, declare a variable for the text:

String textString = getString(R.string.total_coffee_cost, numberOfCoffees, numberOfCoffees * priceOfCup, param3, param4);
priceMessage.setText(textString);
