Java java.math BigDecimal floatValue()

Description Of BigDecimal: floatValue()

The java.math.BigDecimal.floatValue() converts this BigDecimal to a float . This conversion is similar to the narrowing primitive conversion from double to float as defined in section 5.1.3 of The Java? Language Specification : if this BigDecimal has too great a magnitude to represent as a float , it will be converted to Float.NEGATIVE_INFINITY or Float.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.

BigDecimal.floatValue() method returns this BigDecimal converted to a float.

Code Example Java BigDecimal

import java.math.BigDecimal;

public class BigDecimalExam {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
  BigDecimal bg1 = new BigDecimal("25.00");
  BigDecimal bg2 = new BigDecimal("25.00");
  BigDecimal bg3 = new BigDecimal("25");

  float b1 = bg1.floatValue();
  float b2 = bg2.floatValue();
  float b3 = bg3.floatValue();

  System.out.println(b1);
  System.out.println(b2);
  System.out.println(b3);
 }
}
