toString method

@override String toString()

A string representation of this object.

Some classes have a default textual representation, often paired with a static parse function (like int.parse). These classes will provide the textual representation as their string representation.

Other classes have no meaningful textual representation that a program will care about. Such classes will typically override toString to provide useful information when inspecting the object, mainly for debugging or logging.

Implementation

@override
String toString() {
  if (exponent == 0) return '$amount $currency';
  final int unit = _pow10(exponent);
  final String minor =
      (amount % unit).toString().padLeft(exponent, '0');
  return '${amount ~/ unit}.$minor $currency';
}
