Display numbers in scientific notation |
|
|
You can display numbers in scientific notation using java.text package. Specifically
DecimalFormat class in java.text package can be used for this aim.
The following example shows how to do this:
import java.text.*;
import java.math.*;
public class TestScientific {
public static void main(String args[]) {
new TestScientific().doit();
}
public void doit() {
NumberFormat formatter = new DecimalFormat();
int maxinteger = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
System.out.println(maxinteger); // 2147483647
formatter = new DecimalFormat("0.######E0");
System.out.println(formatter.format(maxinteger)); // 2,147484E9
formatter = new DecimalFormat("0.#####E0");
System.out.println(formatter.format(maxinteger)); // 2.14748E9
int mininteger = Integer.MIN_VALUE;
System.out.println(mininteger); // -2147483648
formatter = new DecimalFormat("0.######E0");
System.out.println(formatter.format(mininteger)); // -2.147484E9
formatter = new DecimalFormat("0.#####E0");
System.out.println(formatter.format(mininteger)); // -2.14748E9
double d = 0.12345;
formatter = new DecimalFormat("0.#####E0");
System.out.println(formatter.format(d)); // 1.2345E-1
formatter = new DecimalFormat("000000E0");
System.out.println(formatter.format(d)); // 12345E-6
}
}
