public static CurrencyPrecision currency (Currency.CurrencyUsage currencyUsage)
Show numbers rounded and padded according to the rules for the currency unit. The most common
rounding precision settings for currencies include Precision.fixedFraction(2)
,
Precision.integer()
, and Precision.increment(0.05)
for cash transactions
("nickel rounding").
The exact rounding details will be resolved at runtime based on the currency unit specified in the NumberFormatter chain. To round according to the rules for one currency while displaying the symbol for another currency, the withCurrency() method can be called on the return value of this method.
Parameters | |
---|---|
currencyUsage |
Currency.CurrencyUsage : Either STANDARD (for digital transactions) or CASH (for transactions where the rounding
increment may be limited by the available denominations of cash or coins). |
Returns | |
---|---|
CurrencyPrecision |
A CurrencyPrecision for chaining or passing to the NumberFormatter precision() setter. |
Throws | |
---|---|
IllegalArgumentException |
if currencyUsage is null. |

public static FractionPrecision fixedFraction (int minMaxFractionPlaces)
Show numbers rounded if necessary to a certain number of fraction places (numerals after the decimal separator). Additionally, pad with zeros to ensure that this number of places are always shown.
Example output with minMaxFractionPlaces = 3:
87,650.000
8,765.000
876.500
87.650
8.765
0.876
0.088
0.009
0.000 (zero)
This method is equivalent to minMaxFraction(int, int)
with both arguments equal.
Parameters | |
---|---|
minMaxFractionPlaces |
int : The minimum and maximum number of numerals to display after the decimal separator
(rounding if too long or padding with zeros if too short). |
Returns | |
---|---|
FractionPrecision |
A FractionPrecision for chaining or passing to the NumberFormatter precision() setter. |
Throws | |
---|---|
IllegalArgumentException |
if the input number is too big or smaller than 0. |
See also:
public static Precision fixedSignificantDigits (int minMaxSignificantDigits)
Show numbers rounded if necessary to a certain number of significant digits or significant figures. Additionally, pad with zeros to ensure that this number of significant digits/figures are always shown.
This method is equivalent to minMaxSignificantDigits(int, int)
with both arguments equal.
Parameters | |
---|---|
minMaxSignificantDigits |
int : The minimum and maximum number of significant digits to display (rounding if too long
or padding with zeros if too short). |
Returns | |
---|---|
Precision |
A Precision for chaining or passing to the NumberFormatter precision() setter. |
Throws | |
---|---|
IllegalArgumentException |
if the input number is too big or smaller than 1. |
See also:
public static Precision increment (BigDecimal roundingIncrement)
Show numbers rounded if necessary to the closest multiple of a certain rounding increment. For example, if the rounding increment is 0.5, then round 1.2 to 1 and round 1.3 to 1.5.
In order to ensure that numbers are padded to the appropriate number of fraction places, set the scale on the rounding increment BigDecimal. For example, to round to the nearest 0.5 and always display 2 numerals after the decimal separator (to display 1.2 as "1.00" and 1.3 as "1.50"), you can run:
Precision.increment(new BigDecimal("0.50"))
For more information on the scale of Java BigDecimal, see BigDecimal.scale()
.
Parameters | |
---|---|
roundingIncrement |
BigDecimal : The increment to which to round numbers. |
Returns | |
---|---|
Precision |
A Precision for chaining or passing to the NumberFormatter precision() setter. |
Throws | |
---|---|
IllegalArgumentException |
if the rounding increment is null or non-positive. |

public static FractionPrecision integer ()
Show numbers rounded if necessary to the nearest integer.
Returns | |
---|---|
FractionPrecision |
A FractionPrecision for chaining or passing to the NumberFormatter precision() setter. |
See also:
public static FractionPrecision maxFraction (int maxFractionPlaces)

maxFractionPlaces |
int : The maximum number of numerals to display after the decimal mark (rounding if
necessary). |
Returns | |
---|---|
FractionPrecision |
A FractionPrecision for chaining or passing to the NumberFormatter precision() setter. |

---|---|
IllegalArgumentException |
if the input number is too big or smaller than 0. |
See also:
public static Precision maxSignificantDigits (int maxSignificantDigits)

Parameters | |
---|---|
maxSignificantDigits |
int : The maximum number of significant digits to display (rounding if too long). |

IllegalArgumentException |
if the input number is too big or smaller than 1. |
See also:
public static FractionPrecision minFraction (int minFractionPlaces)
Always show at least a certain number of fraction places after the decimal separator, padding with zeros if necessary. Do not perform rounding (display numbers to their full precision).
NOTE: If you are formatting doubles, see the performance note in
unlimited()
.
Parameters | |
---|---|
minFractionPlaces |
int : The minimum number of numerals to display after the decimal separator (padding with
zeros if necessary). |
Returns | |
---|---|
FractionPrecision |
A FractionPrecision for chaining or passing to the NumberFormatter precision() setter. |
Throws | |
---|---|
IllegalArgumentException |
if the input number is too big or smaller than 0. |
See also:
public static FractionPrecision minMaxFraction (int minFractionPlaces, int maxFractionPlaces)
Show numbers rounded if necessary to a certain number of fraction places (numerals after the decimal separator); in addition, always show at least a certain number of places after the decimal separator, padding with zeros if necessary.
Parameters | |
---|---|
minFractionPlaces |
int : The minimum number of numerals to display after the decimal separator (padding with
zeros if necessary). |
maxFractionPlaces |
int : The maximum number of numerals to display after the decimal separator (rounding if
necessary). |
Returns | |
---|---|
FractionPrecision |
A FractionPrecision for chaining or passing to the NumberFormatter precision() setter. |

maxSignificantDigits |
int : The maximum number of significant digits to display (rounding if necessary). |

---|---|
Precision |
A Precision for chaining or passing to the NumberFormatter precision() setter. |

---|---|
IllegalArgumentException |
if the input number is too big or smaller than 1. |
See also:
public static Precision minSignificantDigits (int minSignificantDigits)
Always show at least a certain number of significant digits/figures, padding with zeros if necessary. Do not perform rounding (display numbers to their full precision).
NOTE: If you are formatting doubles, see the performance note in
unlimited()
.
Parameters | |
---|---|
minSignificantDigits |
int : The minimum number of significant digits to display (padding with zeros if too short). |
Returns | |
---|---|
Precision |
A Precision for chaining or passing to the NumberFormatter precision() setter. |

---|---|
IllegalArgumentException |
if the input number is too big or smaller than 1. |
See also:
public static Precision unlimited ()
Show all available digits to full precision.
NOTE: When formatting a double, this method, along with
minFraction(int)
and minSignificantDigits(int)
, will trigger complex algorithm similar to
Dragon4 to determine the low-order digits and the number of digits to display based on
the value of the double. If the number of fraction places or significant digits can be bounded,
consider using maxFraction(int)
or maxSignificantDigits(int)
instead to maximize performance.
