text: Find smallest number formed by inserting given digit | Java implementation of above approach ; Function to insert X in N and return the minimum value string ; Variable to store length of string N ; Variable to denote the position where X must be added ; If the given string N represent a negative value ; X must be place at the last index where is greater than N [ i ] ; For positive numbers , X must be placed at the last index where it is smaller than N [ i ] ; Insert X at that position ; return string ; Driver call ; given input ; function call
