public class DecimalFormat extends NumberFormat
DecimalFormatis a concrete subclass ofNumberFormatthat formats decimal numbers. It has a variety of features designed to make it possible to parse and format numbers in any locale, including support for Western, Arabic, and Indic digits. It also supports different kinds of numbers, including integers (123), fixed-point numbers (123.4), scientific notation (1.23E4), percentages (12%), and currency amounts ($123). All of these can be localized.To obtain a
NumberFormatfor a specific locale, including the default locale, call one ofNumberFormat's factory methods, such asgetInstance(). In general, do not call theDecimalFormatconstructors directly, since theNumberFormatfactory methods may return subclasses other thanDecimalFormat. If you need to customize the format object, do something like this:NumberFormat f = NumberFormat.getInstance(loc); if (f instanceof DecimalFormat) { ((DecimalFormat) f).setDecimalSeparatorAlwaysShown(true); }A
DecimalFormatcomprises a pattern and a set of symbols. The pattern may be set directly usingapplyPattern(), or indirectly using the API methods. The symbols are stored in aDecimalFormatSymbolsobject. When using theNumberFormatfactory methods, the pattern and symbols are read from localizedResourceBundles.Patterns
DecimalFormatpatterns have the following syntax:Pattern: PositivePattern PositivePattern ; NegativePattern PositivePattern: Prefixopt Number Suffixopt NegativePattern: Prefixopt Number Suffixopt Prefix: any Unicode characters except \uFFFE, \uFFFF, and special characters Suffix: any Unicode characters except \uFFFE, \uFFFF, and special characters Number: Integer Exponentopt Integer . Fraction Exponentopt Integer: MinimumInteger # # Integer # , Integer MinimumInteger: 0 0 MinimumInteger 0 , MinimumInteger Fraction: MinimumFractionopt OptionalFractionopt MinimumFraction: 0 MinimumFractionopt OptionalFraction: # OptionalFractionopt Exponent: E MinimumExponent MinimumExponent: 0 MinimumExponentoptA
DecimalFormatpattern contains a positive and negative subpattern, for example,"#,##0.00;(#,##0.00)". Each subpattern has a prefix, numeric part, and suffix. The negative subpattern is optional; if absent, then the positive subpattern prefixed with the localized minus sign ('-'in most locales) is used as the negative subpattern. That is,"0.00"alone is equivalent to"0.00;-0.00". If there is an explicit negative subpattern, it serves only to specify the negative prefix and suffix; the number of digits, minimal digits, and other characteristics are all the same as the positive pattern. That means that"#,##0.0#;(#)"produces precisely the same behavior as"#,##0.0#;(#,##0.0#)".The prefixes, suffixes, and various symbols used for infinity, digits, thousands separators, decimal separators, etc. may be set to arbitrary values, and they will appear properly during formatting. However, care must be taken that the symbols and strings do not conflict, or parsing will be unreliable. For example, either the positive and negative prefixes or the suffixes must be distinct for
DecimalFormat.parse()to be able to distinguish positive from negative values. (If they are identical, thenDecimalFormatwill behave as if no negative subpattern was specified.) Another example is that the decimal separator and thousands separator should be distinct characters, or parsing will be impossible.The grouping separator is commonly used for thousands, but in some countries it separates ten-thousands. The grouping size is a constant number of digits between the grouping characters, such as 3 for 100,000,000 or 4 for 1,0000,0000. If you supply a pattern with multiple grouping characters, the interval between the last one and the end of the integer is the one that is used. So
"#,##,###,####"=="######,####"=="##,####,####".Special Pattern Characters
Many characters in a pattern are taken literally; they are matched during parsing and output unchanged during formatting. Special characters, on the other hand, stand for other characters, strings, or classes of characters. They must be quoted, unless noted otherwise, if they are to appear in the prefix or suffix as literals.
The characters listed here are used in non-localized patterns. Localized patterns use the corresponding characters taken from this formatter's
DecimalFormatSymbolsobject instead, and these characters lose their special status. Two exceptions are the currency sign and quote, which are not localized.Symbol Location Localized? Meaning 0Number Yes Digit #Number Yes Digit, zero shows as absent .Number Yes Decimal separator or monetary decimal separator -Number Yes Minus sign ,Number Yes Grouping separator ENumber Yes Separates mantissa and exponent in scientific notation. Need not be quoted in prefix or suffix. ;Subpattern boundary Yes Separates positive and negative subpatterns %Prefix or suffix Yes Multiply by 100 and show as percentage \u2030Prefix or suffix Yes Multiply by 1000 and show as per mille value ¤(\u00A4)Prefix or suffix No Currency sign, replaced by currency symbol. If doubled, replaced by international currency symbol. If present in a pattern, the monetary decimal separator is used instead of the decimal separator. 'Prefix or suffix No Used to quote special characters in a prefix or suffix, for example, "'#'#"formats 123 to"#123". To create a single quote itself, use two in a row:"# o''clock".Scientific Notation
Numbers in scientific notation are expressed as the product of a mantissa and a power of ten, for example, 1234 can be expressed as 1.234 x 10^3. The mantissa is often in the range 1.0 ≤ x < 10.0, but it need not be.
DecimalFormatcan be instructed to format and parse scientific notation only via a pattern; there is currently no factory method that creates a scientific notation format. In a pattern, the exponent character immediately followed by one or more digit characters indicates scientific notation. Example:"0.###E0"formats the number 1234 as"1.234E3".- The number of digit characters after the exponent character gives the
minimum exponent digit count. There is no maximum. Negative exponents are
formatted using the localized minus sign, not the prefix and suffix
from the pattern. This allows patterns such as
"0.###E0 m/s". - The minimum and maximum number of integer digits are interpreted
together:
- If the maximum number of integer digits is greater than their minimum number
and greater than 1, it forces the exponent to be a multiple of the maximum
number of integer digits, and the minimum number of integer digits to be
interpreted as 1. The most common use of this is to generate
engineering notation, in which the exponent is a multiple of three,
e.g.,
"##0.#####E0". Using this pattern, the number 12345 formats to"12.345E3", and 123456 formats to"123.456E3". - Otherwise, the minimum number of integer digits is achieved by adjusting the
exponent. Example: 0.00123 formatted with
"00.###E0"yields"12.3E-4".
- If the maximum number of integer digits is greater than their minimum number
and greater than 1, it forces the exponent to be a multiple of the maximum
number of integer digits, and the minimum number of integer digits to be
interpreted as 1. The most common use of this is to generate
engineering notation, in which the exponent is a multiple of three,
e.g.,
- The number of significant digits in the mantissa is the sum of the
minimum integer and maximum fraction digits, and is
unaffected by the maximum integer digits. For example, 12345 formatted with
"##0.##E0"is"12.3E3". To show all digits, set the significant digits count to zero. The number of significant digits does not affect parsing. - Exponential patterns may not contain grouping separators.
Rounding
DecimalFormatprovides rounding modes defined inRoundingModefor formatting. By default, it usesRoundingMode.HALF_EVEN.Digits
For formatting,DecimalFormatuses the ten consecutive characters starting with the localized zero digit defined in theDecimalFormatSymbolsobject as digits. For parsing, these digits as well as all Unicode decimal digits, as defined byCharacter.digit, are recognized.Special Values
NaNis formatted as a string, which typically has a single character\uFFFD. This string is determined by theDecimalFormatSymbolsobject. This is the only value for which the prefixes and suffixes are not used.Infinity is formatted as a string, which typically has a single character
\u221E, with the positive or negative prefixes and suffixes applied. The infinity string is determined by theDecimalFormatSymbolsobject.Negative zero (
"-0") parses toBigDecimal(0)ifisParseBigDecimal()is true,Long(0)ifisParseBigDecimal()is false andisParseIntegerOnly()is true,Double(-0.0)if bothisParseBigDecimal()andisParseIntegerOnly()are false.
Synchronization
Decimal formats are generally not synchronized. It is recommended to create separate format instances for each thread. If multiple threads access a format concurrently, it must be synchronized externally.
Example
<strong>// Print out a number using the localized number, integer, currency, // and percent format for each locale</strong> Locale[] locales = NumberFormat.getAvailableLocales(); double myNumber = -1234.56; NumberFormat form; for (int j = 0; j < 4; ++j) { System.out.println("FORMAT"); for (int i = 0; i < locales.length; ++i) { if (locales[i].getCountry().length() == 0) { continue; // Skip language-only locales } System.out.print(locales[i].getDisplayName()); switch (j) { case 0: form = NumberFormat.getInstance(locales[i]); break; case 1: form = NumberFormat.getIntegerInstance(locales[i]); break; case 2: form = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(locales[i]); break; default: form = NumberFormat.getPercentInstance(locales[i]); break; } if (form instanceof DecimalFormat) { System.out.print(": " + ((DecimalFormat) form).toPattern()); } System.out.print(" -> " + form.format(myNumber)); try { System.out.println(" -> " + form.parse(form.format(myNumber))); } catch (ParseException e) {} } }- Since:

parse
public Number parse(String text, ParsePosition pos)
Parses text from a string to produce aNumber.The method attempts to parse text starting at the index given by
pos. If parsing succeeds, then the index ofposis updated to the index after the last character used (parsing does not necessarily use all characters up to the end of the string), and the parsed number is returned. The updatedposcan be used to indicate the starting point for the next call to this method. If an error occurs, then the index ofposis not changed, the error index ofposis set to the index of the character where the error occurred, and null is returned.The subclass returned depends on the value of
isParseBigDecimal()as well as on the string being parsed.- If
isParseBigDecimal()is false (the default), most integer values are returned asLongobjects, no matter how they are written:"17"and"17.000"both parse toLong(17). Values that cannot fit into aLongare returned asDoubles. This includes values with a fractional part, infinite values,NaN, and the value -0.0.DecimalFormatdoes not decide whether to return aDoubleor aLongbased on the presence of a decimal separator in the source string. Doing so would prevent integers that overflow the mantissa of a double, such as"-9,223,372,036,854,775,808.00", from being parsed accurately.Callers may use the
NumbermethodsdoubleValue,longValue, etc., to obtain the type they want. - If
isParseBigDecimal()is true, values are returned asBigDecimalobjects. The values are the ones constructed byBigDecimal(String)for corresponding strings in locale-independent format. The special cases negative and positive infinity and NaN are returned asDoubleinstances holding the values of the correspondingDoubleconstants.
DecimalFormatparses all Unicode characters that represent decimal digits, as defined byCharacter.digit(). In addition,DecimalFormatalso recognizes as digits the ten consecutive characters starting with the localized zero digit defined in theDecimalFormatSymbolsobject.- Specified by:
parsein classNumberFormat- Parameters:
text- the string to be parsedpos- AParsePositionobject with index and error index information as described above.- Returns:
- the parsed value, or
