fixed library
The Fixed package allows you to store and perform maths on decimal numbers with a fixed scale (fixed number of decimal places). All amounts are stored using the Decimal package to allow precision maths to be performed.
Conversion from a number of other numberic formats is supported as well as parsing and formatting Fixed scale no.s
Fixed uses the Decimal package to store the underlying values so the precision is only limited by the size of memory.
A range of mathematical comparision operations are supported.
Classes
- Fixed
- Represents a fixed scale decimal no.
Exceptions / Errors
- AmountTooLargeException

- FixedException
- Base exception of all exceptions thrown from the Fixed package.
- FixedParseException
- Exception thrown when a parse fails.
- IllegalFixedPatternException
- Thrown when you pass an invalid pattern to Fixed.format.
