Immutable, arbitrary-precision signed decimal numbers. A BigDecimal
consists of an arbitrary precision integer unscaled value and a 32-bit integer scale. If zero or positive, the scale is the number of digits to the right of the decimal point. If negative, the unscaled value of the number is multiplied by ten to the power of the negation of the scale. The value of the number represented by the BigDecimal
is therefore (unscaledValue × 10-scale)
The BigDecimal
class provides operations for arithmetic, scale manipulation, rounding, comparison, hashing, and format conversion. The toString
method provides a canonical representation of a BigDecimal
.
The BigDecimal
class gives its user complete control over rounding behavior. If no rounding mode is specified and the exact result cannot be represented, an ArithmeticException
is thrown; otherwise, calculations can be carried out to a chosen precision and rounding mode by supplying an appropriate MathContext
object to the operation. In either case, eight rounding modes are provided for the control of rounding. Using the integer fields in this class (such as ROUND_HALF_UP
) to represent rounding mode is deprecated; the enumeration values of the RoundingMode
enum
, (such as RoundingMode#HALF_UP
) should be used instead.
When a MathContext
object is supplied with a precision setting of 0 (for example, MathContext#UNLIMITED
), arithmetic operations are exact, as are the arithmetic methods which take no MathContext
object. As a corollary of computing the exact result, the rounding mode setting of a MathContext
object with a precision setting of 0 is not used and thus irrelevant. In the case of divide, the exact quotient could have an infinitely long decimal expansion; for example, 1 divided by 3. If the quotient has a nonterminating decimal expansion and the operation is specified to return an exact result, an ArithmeticException
is thrown. Otherwise, the exact result of the division is returned, as done for other operations.
When the precision setting is not 0, the rules of BigDecimal
arithmetic are broadly compatible with selected modes of operation of the arithmetic defined in ANSI X3.274-1996 and ANSI X3.274-1996/AM 1-2000 (section 7.4). Unlike those standards, BigDecimal
includes many rounding modes. Any conflicts between these ANSI standards and the BigDecimal
specification are resolved in favor of BigDecimal
.
Since the same numerical value can have different representations (with different scales), the rules of arithmetic and rounding must specify both the numerical result and the scale used in the result's representation. The different representations of the same numerical value are called members of the same cohort. The natural order of BigDecimal
considers members of the same cohort to be equal to each other. In contrast, the equals
method requires both the numerical value and representation to be the same for equality to hold. The results of methods like scale()
and unscaledValue()
will differ for numerically equal values with different representations.
In general the rounding modes and precision setting determine how operations return results with a limited number of digits when the exact result has more digits (perhaps infinitely many in the case of division and square root) than the number of digits returned. First, the total number of digits to return is specified by the MathContext
's precision
setting; this determines the result's precision. The digit count starts from the leftmost nonzero digit of the exact result. The rounding mode determines how any discarded trailing digits affect the returned result.
For all arithmetic operators, the operation is carried out as though an exact intermediate result were first calculated and then rounded to the number of digits specified by the precision setting (if necessary), using the selected rounding mode. If the exact result is not returned, some digit positions of the exact result are discarded. When rounding increases the magnitude of the returned result, it is possible for a new digit position to be created by a carry propagating to a leading "9" digit. For example, rounding the value 999.9 to three digits rounding up would be numerically equal to one thousand, represented as 100×101. In such cases, the new "1" is the leading digit position of the returned result.
For methods and constructors with a MathContext
parameter, if the result is inexact but the rounding mode is UNNECESSARY
, an ArithmeticException
will be thrown.
Besides a logical exact result, each arithmetic operation has a preferred scale for representing a result. The preferred scale for each operation is listed in the table below.
Operation | Preferred Scale of Result |
---|---|
Add | max(addend.scale(), augend.scale()) |
Subtract | max(minuend.scale(), subtrahend.scale()) |
Multiply | multiplier.scale() + multiplicand.scale() |
Divide | dividend.scale() - divisor.scale() |
Square root | radicand.scale()/2 |
1/32
is 0.03125
.
Before rounding, the scale of the logical exact intermediate result is the preferred scale for that operation. If the exact numerical result cannot be represented in precision
digits, rounding selects the set of digits to return and the scale of the result is reduced from the scale of the intermediate result to the least scale which can represent the precision
digits actually returned. If the exact result can be represented with at most precision
digits, the representation of the result with the scale closest to the preferred scale is returned. In particular, an exactly representable quotient may be represented in fewer than precision
digits by removing trailing zeros and decreasing the scale. For example, rounding to three digits using the floor rounding mode,
19/100 = 0.19 // integer=19, scale=2
but
21/110 = 0.190 // integer=190, scale=3
Note that for add, subtract, and multiply, the reduction in scale will equal the number of digit positions of the exact result which are discarded. If the rounding causes a carry propagation to create a new high-order digit position, an additional digit of the result is discarded than when no new digit position is created.
Other methods may have slightly different rounding semantics. For example, the result of the pow
method using the specified algorithm can occasionally differ from the rounded mathematical result by more than one unit in the last place, one ulp.
Two types of operations are provided for manipulating the scale of a BigDecimal
: scaling/rounding operations and decimal point motion operations. Scaling/rounding operations (#setScale and round
) return a BigDecimal
whose value is approximately (or exactly) equal to that of the operand, but whose scale or precision is the specified value; that is, they increase or decrease the precision of the stored number with minimal effect on its value. Decimal point motion operations (movePointLeft
and movePointRight
) return a BigDecimal
created from the operand by moving the decimal point a specified distance in the specified direction.
As a 32-bit integer, the set of values for the scale is large, but bounded. If the scale of a result would exceed the range of a 32-bit integer, either by overflow or underflow, the operation may throw an ArithmeticException
.
For the sake of brevity and clarity, pseudo-code is used throughout the descriptions of BigDecimal
methods. The pseudo-code expression (i + j)
is shorthand for "a BigDecimal
whose value is that of the BigDecimal
i
added to that of the BigDecimal
j
." The pseudo-code expression (i == j)
is shorthand for "true
if and only if the BigDecimal
i
represents the same value as the BigDecimal
j
." Other pseudo-code expressions are interpreted similarly. Square brackets are used to represent the particular BigInteger
and scale pair defining a BigDecimal
value; for example [19, 2] is the BigDecimal
numerically equal to 0.19 having a scale of 2.
All methods and constructors for this class throw NullPointerException
when passed a null
object reference for any input parameter.

. Note that this rounding mode never decreases the calculated value.
Value: 2
ROUND_DOWN
static valROUND_DOWN: Int
Deprecated: Use RoundingMode#DOWN
instead.

Value: 1
ROUND_FLOOR
static valROUND_FLOOR: Int
Deprecated: Use RoundingMode#FLOOR
instead.

BigDecimal
BigDecimal(val: String!)
Translates the string representation of a BigDecimal
into a BigDecimal
. The string representation consists of an optional sign, '+'
( '\u002B'
) or '-'
('\u002D'
), followed by a sequence of zero or more decimal digits ("the integer"), optionally followed by a fraction, optionally followed by an exponent.
The fraction consists of a decimal point followed by zero or more decimal digits. The string must contain at least one digit in either the integer or the fraction. The number formed by the sign, the integer and the fraction is referred to as the significand.
The exponent consists of the character 'e'
('\u0065'
) or 'E'
('\u0045'
) followed by one or more decimal digits. The value of the exponent must lie between -Integer#MAX_VALUE
(java.lang.Integer#MIN_VALUE
+1) and Integer#MAX_VALUE
, inclusive.
More formally, the strings this constructor accepts are described by the following grammar:
- BigDecimalString:
- Signopt Significand Exponentopt
- Sign:

, including 0, 1, 2 ...
The scale of the returned BigDecimal
will be the number of digits in the fraction, or zero if the string contains no decimal point, subject to adjustment for any exponent; if the string contains an exponent, the exponent is subtracted from the scale. The value of the resulting scale must lie between Integer.MIN_VALUE
and Integer.MAX_VALUE
, inclusive.
The character-to-digit mapping is provided by java.lang.Character#digit set to convert to radix 10. The String may not contain any extraneous characters (whitespace, for example).
Examples:
The value of the returned BigDecimal
is equal to significand × 10 exponent. For each string on the left, the resulting representation [BigInteger
, scale
] is shown on the right.

BigDecimal
BigDecimal(val: Double)
Translates a double
into a BigDecimal
which is the exact decimal representation of the double
's binary floating-point value. The scale of the returned BigDecimal
is the smallest value such that (10scale × val)
is an integer.
Notes:
- The results of this constructor can be somewhat unpredictable. One might assume that writing
new BigDecimal(0.1)
in Java creates aBigDecimal
which is exactly equal to 0.1 (an unscaled value of 1, with a scale of 1), but it is actually equal to 0.1000000000000000055511151231257827021181583404541015625. This is because 0.1 cannot be represented exactly as adouble
(or, for that matter, as a binary fraction of any finite length). Thus, the value that is being passed in to the constructor is not exactly equal to 0.1, appearances notwithstanding. - The
String
constructor, on the other hand, is perfectly predictable: writingnew BigDecimal("0.1")
creates aBigDecimal
which is exactly equal to 0.1, as one would expect. Therefore, it is generally recommended that the String constructor be used in preference to this one. - When a
double
must be used as a source for aBigDecimal
, note that this constructor provides an exact conversion; it does not give the same result as converting thedouble
to aString
using theDouble#toString(double)
method and then using theBigDecimal(java.lang.String)
constructor. To get that result, use thestatic
valueOf(double)
method.

open fun remainder(
divisor: BigDecimal!,
mc: MathContext!
): BigDecimal!

setScale
open funsetScale(
newScale: Int,
roundingMode: Int
): BigDecimal!
Deprecated: The method setScale(int,java.math.RoundingMode)
should be used in preference to this legacy method.
Returns a BigDecimal
whose scale is the specified value, and whose unscaled value is determined by multiplying or dividing this BigDecimal
's unscaled value by the appropriate power of ten to maintain its overall value. If the scale is reduced by the operation, the unscaled value must be divided (rather than multiplied), and the value may be changed; in this case, the specified rounding mode is applied to the division.

setScale
open fun setScale(newScale: Int): BigDecimal!
Returns a BigDecimal
whose scale is the specified value, and whose value is numerically equal to this BigDecimal
's. Throws an ArithmeticException
if this is not possible.
This call is typically used to increase the scale, in which case it is guaranteed that there exists a BigDecimal
of the specified scale and the correct value. The call can also be used to reduce the scale if the caller knows that the BigDecimal
has sufficiently many zeros at the end of its fractional part (i.e., factors of ten in its integer value) to allow for the rescaling without changing its value.
This method returns the same result as the two-argument versions of setScale
, but saves the caller the trouble of specifying a rounding mode in cases where it is irrelevant.
Parameters | |
---|---|
newScale |
Int: scale of the BigDecimal value to be returned. |
Return | |
---|---|
BigDecimal! |
a BigDecimal whose scale is the specified value, and whose unscaled value is determined by multiplying or dividing this BigDecimal 's unscaled value by the appropriate power of ten to maintain its overall value. |

, HALF_DOWN
, or HALF_EVEN
, the result is within one half an ulp of the exact decimal value.

toBigInteger
open fun toBigInteger(): BigInteger!
Converts this BigDecimal
to a BigInteger
. This conversion is analogous to the narrowing primitive conversion from double
to long
as defined in The Java Language Specification: any fractional part of this BigDecimal
will be discarded. Note that this conversion can lose information about the precision of the BigDecimal
value.
To have an exception thrown if the conversion is inexact (in other words if a nonzero fractional part is discarded), use the toBigIntegerExact()
method.
Return | |
---|---|
BigInteger! |
this BigDecimal converted to a BigInteger . |
toBigIntegerExact
open fun toBigIntegerExact(): BigInteger!
Converts this BigDecimal
to a BigInteger
, checking for lost information. An exception is thrown if this BigDecimal

if this has a nonzero fractional part. |
toDouble
open fun toDouble(): Double
Converts this BigDecimal
to a double
. This conversion is similar to the narrowing primitive conversion from double
to float
as defined in The Java Language Specification: if this BigDecimal
has too great a magnitude represent as a double
, it will be converted to Double#NEGATIVE_INFINITY
or java.lang.Double#POSITIVE_INFINITY
as appropriate. Note that even when the return value is finite, this conversion can lose information about the precision of the BigDecimal
value.

toEngineeringString
open fun toEngineeringString(): String!
Returns a string representation of this BigDecimal
, using engineering notation if an exponent is needed.
Returns a string that represents the BigDecimal
as described in the toString()
method, except that if exponential notation is used, the power of ten is adjusted to be a multiple of three (engineering notation) such that the integer part of nonzero values will be in the range 1 through 999. If exponential notation is used for zero values, a decimal point and one or two fractional zero digits are used so that the scale of the zero value is preserved. Note that unlike the output of toString()
, the output of this method is not guaranteed to recover the same [integer, scale] pair of this BigDecimal
if the output string is converting back to a BigDecimal
using the string constructor. The result of this method meets the weaker constraint of always producing a numerically equal result from applying the string constructor to the method's output.

string representation of this BigDecimal , using engineering notation if an exponent is needed. |
toFloat
open fun toFloat(): Float

as appropriate. Note that even when the return value is finite, this conversion can lose information about the precision of the BigDecimal
value.

Float |
this BigDecimal converted to a float . |
toInt
open fun toInt(): Int

to an int
. This conversion is analogous to the narrowing primitive conversion from double
to short
as defined in The Java Language Specification: any fractional part of this BigDecimal
will be discarded, and if the resulting "BigInteger
" is too big to fit in an int
, only the low-order 32 bits are returned. Note that this conversion can lose information about the overall magnitude and precision of this BigDecimal
value as well as return a result with the opposite sign.
Return | |
---|---|
Int |
this BigDecimal converted to an int . |
toLong
open fun toLong(): Long
Converts this BigDecimal
to a long
. This conversion is analogous to the narrowing primitive conversion from double
to short
as defined in The Java Language Specification: any fractional part of this BigDecimal
will be discarded, and if the resulting "BigInteger
" is too big to fit in a long
, only the low-order 64 bits are returned. Note that this conversion can lose information about the overall magnitude and precision of this BigDecimal
value as well as return a result with the opposite sign.
Return | |
---|---|
Long |
this BigDecimal converted to a long . |
toPlainString
open fun toPlainString(): String!
Returns a string representation of this BigDecimal
without an exponent field. For values with a positive scale, the number of digits to the right of the decimal point is used to indicate scale. For values with a zero or negative scale, the resulting string is generated as if the value were converted to a numerically equal value with zero scale and as if all the trailing zeros of the zero scale value were present in the result. The entire string is prefixed by a minus sign character '-' ('\u002D'
) if the unscaled value is less than zero. No sign character is prefixed if the unscaled value is zero or positive. Note that if the result of this method is passed to the string constructor, only the numerical value of this BigDecimal
will necessarily be recovered; the representation of the new BigDecimal
may have a different scale. In particular, if this BigDecimal
has a negative scale, the string resulting from this method will have a scale of zero when processed by the string constructor. (This method behaves analogously to the toString
method in 1.4 and earlier releases.)

toString
open fun toString(): String
Returns the string representation of this BigDecimal
, using scientific notation if an exponent is needed.
A standard canonical string form of the BigDecimal
is created as though by the following steps: first, the absolute value of the unscaled value of the BigDecimal
is converted to a string in base ten using the characters '0'
through '9'
with no leading zeros (except if its value is zero, in which case a single '0'
character is used).
Next, an adjusted exponent is calculated; this is the negated scale, plus the number of characters in the converted unscaled value, less one. That is, -scale+(ulength-1)
, where ulength
is the length of the absolute value of the unscaled value in decimal digits (its precision).
If the scale is greater than or equal to zero and the adjusted exponent is greater than or equal to -6
, the number will be converted to a character form without using exponential notation. In this case, if the scale is zero then no decimal point is added and if the scale is positive a decimal point will be inserted with the scale specifying the number of characters to the right of the decimal point. '0'
characters are added to the left of the converted unscaled value as necessary. If no character precedes the decimal point after this insertion then a conventional '0'
character is prefixed.
Otherwise (that is, if the scale is negative, or the adjusted exponent is less than -6
), the number will be converted to a character form using exponential notation. In this case, if the converted BigInteger
has more than one digit a decimal point is inserted after the first digit. An exponent in character form is then suffixed to the converted unscaled value (perhaps with inserted decimal point); this comprises the letter 'E'
followed immediately by the adjusted exponent converted to a character form. The latter is in base ten, using the characters '0'
through '9'
with no leading zeros, and is always prefixed by a sign character '-'
('\u002D'
) if the adjusted exponent is negative, '+'
('\u002B'
) otherwise).
Finally, the entire string is prefixed by a minus sign character '-'
('\u002D'
) if the unscaled value is less than zero. No sign character is prefixed if the unscaled value is zero or positive.
Examples:
For each representation [unscaled value, scale] on the left, the resulting string is shown on the right.
[123,0] "123" [-123,0] "-123" [123,-1] "1.23E+3" [123,-3] "1.23E+5" [123,1] "12.3" [123,5] "0.00123" [123,10] "1.23E-8" [-123,12] "-1.23E-10"
- There is a one-to-one mapping between the distinguishable
BigDecimal
values and the result of this conversion. That is, every distinguishableBigDecimal
value (unscaled value and scale) has a unique string representation as a result of usingtoString
. If that string representation is converted back to aBigDecimal
using theBigDecimal(java.lang.String)
constructor, then the original value will be recovered. - The string produced for a given number is always the same; it is not affected by locale. This means that it can be used as a canonical string representation for exchanging decimal data, or as a key for a Hashtable, etc. Locale-sensitive number formatting and parsing is handled by the class and its subclasses.
- The
toEngineeringString
method may be used for presenting numbers with exponents in engineering notation, and thesetScale
method may be used for rounding aBigDecimal
so it has a known number of digits after the decimal point. - The digit-to-character mapping provided by
Character.forDigit
is used.

ulp
open fun ulp(): BigDecimal!
Returns the size of an ulp, a unit in the last place, of this BigDecimal
. An ulp of a nonzero BigDecimal
value is the positive distance between this value and the BigDecimal
value next larger in magnitude with the same number of digits. An ulp of a zero value is numerically equal to 1 with the scale of this
. The result is stored with the same scale as this
so the result for zero and nonzero values is equal to [1, this.scale()]
.
