| Constructor | Description |
|---|---|
BigDecimal (BigInteger unscaledVal,
int scale,
MathContext mc)
Translates a
BigInteger unscaled value and an
int scale into a BigDecimal, with rounding
according to the context settings. |
|
BigDecimal (BigInteger val,
MathContext mc)
Translates a
BigInteger into a BigDecimal
rounding according to the context settings. |
|
BigDecimal (char[] in,
int offset,
int len,
MathContext mc)
Translates a character array representation of a
BigDecimal into a BigDecimal, accepting the
same sequence of characters as the BigDecimal.BigDecimal(String)
constructor, while allowing a sub-array to be specified and
with rounding according to the context settings. |
|
BigDecimal (char[] in,
MathContext mc)
Translates a character array representation of a
BigDecimal into a BigDecimal, accepting the
same sequence of characters as the BigDecimal.BigDecimal(String)
constructor and with rounding according to the context
settings. |
|
BigDecimal (double val,
MathContext mc)
Translates a
double into a BigDecimal, with
rounding according to the context settings. |
|
BigDecimal (int val,
MathContext mc)
Translates an
int into a BigDecimal, with
rounding according to the context settings. |
|
BigDecimal (long val,
MathContext mc)
Translates a
long into a BigDecimal, with
rounding according to the context settings. |
|
BigDecimal (String val,
MathContext mc)
Translates the string representation of a
BigDecimal
into a BigDecimal, accepting the same strings as the
BigDecimal.BigDecimal(String) constructor, with rounding
according to the context settings. |
