statement of problem:
What will I see if we can compile this program?
Public class test {
Public static void main (string args []) {
System.out.println (0.05 0.01);
System.out.println (1.0-0.42);
System.out.println (4.015 * 100);
System.out.println (123.3 / 100);
}
}
You don't have a mistake! The result is indeed
0.06000000000000000005
0.580000000000000001
401.49999999999994
1.2329999999999999
Simple floating point types in Java FLOAT and DOUBLE cannot be operated. Not only Java, there is such a problem in many other programming languages. In most cases, the result of the calculation is accurate, but it can be tried several times (can be a loop) to try the above errors. Now I finally understand why there is a BCD code.
This problem is quite serious, if you have 9.99999999999 yuan, your computer will not think you can purchase 10 yuan.
This situation is provided in a programming language to handle this situation, but Java is not. Let us now look at how to solve this problem.
rounding
Our first reaction is to do four. The Round method in the MATH class cannot be set to keep several decimals, we can only like this (reserve two digits):
Public Double Round (Double Value) {
Return Math.Round (Value * 100) /100.0;
}
Unfortunately, the above code does not work properly, introduced to this method into 4.015 it will return 4.01 instead of 4.02, as we see above
4.015 * 100 = 401.4999999999994
So if we have to do exactly four, you can't use your simple type to do any operation.
Java.text.DecimalFormat can't solve this problem:
System.out.println (new java.text.decimalformat ("0.00"). Format (4.025));
Output is 4.02
BigDecimal
This principle is also mentioned in "Effective Java", float and double can only be used to make scientific calculations or project calculations, we have to use java.math.bigDecimal in business calculations. BigDecimal has four enough way to make a method, we don't care about it with Biginteger, then there are two, they are:
BigDecimal (Double Val)
TRANSLATES A DOUBLE INTO A BIGDECIMAL.
BigDecimal (String Val)
TRANSLATES The STRING REPRE SENTATION OF A BIGDECIMAL INTO A BIGDECIMAL.
The above API brief description is quite clear, and usually, it is convenient to use the one of the above. We may want to use it, what is the problem? When I got out of the problem, I found that there is such a detailed description of the following method:
Note:. The results of this constructor can be somewhat unpredictable One might assume that new BigDecimal (.1) is exactly equal to .1, but it is actually equal to .1000000000000000055511151231257827021181583404541015625 This is so because .1 can not be represented exactly as a. double (or, for that matter, as a binary fraction of any finite length). Thus, the long value that is being passed in to the constructor is not exactly equal to .1, appearances nonwithstanding.The (String) constructor, on the other hand, is perfectly predictable: new BigDecimal ( ". 1") is exactly equal to .1, as one would expect Therefore, it is generally recommended that the (String) constructor be used in preference to this one..
It turns out that if we need to calculate it, you have to use String to make BigDecimal! The example in the "Effective Java" book is to make BigDecimal with String, but the book is not emphasized, this may be a small mistake.
solution
Now we can solve this problem, the principle is to use BigDecimal and must use String to make it.
But imagine it, if we have to do an additional operation, you need to turn the two floating point numbers to string, then make BigDecimal, one of them, to send another as a parameter, then put the calculation result ( BigDecimal is converted to floating point. Can you endure such a cumbersome process? Below we provide a tool class Arith to simplify operation. It provides the following static methods, including addition and subtraction and removal and rounding:
Public Static Double Add (Double V1, Double V2)
Public Static Double Sub (Double V1, Double V2)
Public Static Double Mul (Double V1, Double V2)
Public Static Double Div (Double V1, Double V2)
Public Static Double Div (Double V1, Double V2, INT Scale)
Public Static Double Round (Double V, Int Scale)
