Class DfpDec

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    FieldElement<Dfp>

    public class DfpDec
    extends Dfp
    Subclass of Dfp which hides the radix-10000 artifacts of the superclass. This should give outward appearances of being a decimal number with DIGITS*4-3 decimal digits. This class can be subclassed to appear to be an arbitrary number of decimal digits less than DIGITS*4-3.

        Overrides:
        newInstance in class Dfp
        Parameters:
        d - instance to copy
        Returns:
        a new instance with the same value as d
      • newInstance

        public Dfp newInstance​(java.lang.String s)
        Create an instance from a String representation. Use this internally in preference to constructors to facilitate subclasses.
        Overrides:
        newInstance in class Dfp
        Parameters:
        s - string representation of the instance
