title: Write % in strings.xml of android
body: <p>I want to create the following string array in my <code>strings.xml</code> file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;string-array name="an_array_columns"&gt;
           &lt;item&gt;% Select percentage1&lt;/item&gt;
           &lt;item&gt;% Select percentage2&lt;/item&gt;
  &lt;/string-array&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>here the string is "% select percentage". Now, when I am writing this in my strings.xml, I am getting the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Multiple annotations found at this line:
      - error: Multiple substitutions specified in non-positional format; did you mean to 
       add the formatted="false" attribute?
      - error: Found tag &lt;/item&gt; where &lt;/string-array&gt; is expected
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I know we can change <code>&amp;</code> to <code>&amp;amp;</code> or <code>'</code> to <code>\'</code>, but what do I do for percentage sign?</p>
