Interface ApfloatImpl

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

DoubleApfloatImpl, FloatApfloatImpl, IntApfloatImpl, LongApfloatImpl

public interface ApfloatImpl
extends Serializable

Interface for apfloat implementations. An ApfloatImpl implements all of the low-level functionality that is needed behind the high-level apfloat API.

A class implementing ApfloatImpl is not required to accept any other ApfloatImpl class as the argument than the same implementing class.

Method Detail

addOrSubtract

ApfloatImpl addOrSubtract(ApfloatImpl x,
                          boolean subtract)
                          throws ApfloatRuntimeException

Add or subtract an ApfloatImpl to this object.

Parameters:

x - The number to be added or subtracted to this ApfloatImpl.

subtract - true if the numbers are to be subtracted, false if added.

Returns:

this + x or this - x depending on the subtract argument.

Throws:

ApfloatRuntimeException

multiply

ApfloatImpl multiply(ApfloatImpl x)
                     throws ApfloatRuntimeException

Multiply this object by an ApfloatImpl.

Parameters:

x - The number to be multiplied by this ApfloatImpl.

Returns:

this * x.

Throws:

ApfloatRuntimeException

isShort

boolean isShort()
                throws ApfloatRuntimeException

Returns if this ApfloatImpl is "short". Typically ApfloatImpl is "short" if its mantissa fits in one machine word. If the apfloat is "short", some algorithms can be performed faster.

The return value of this method is highly implementation dependent.

Returns:

true if the ApfloatImpl is "short", false if not.

Throws:

ApfloatRuntimeException

See Also:

Apfloat.isShort()

divideShort

ApfloatImpl divideShort(ApfloatImpl x)
                        throws ApfloatRuntimeException

Divide this ApfloatImpl by an ApfloatImpl that is "short".

Parameters:

x - The number by which this ApfloatImpl is to be divided.

Returns:

this / x.

Throws:

ApfloatRuntimeException

absFloor

ApfloatImpl absFloor()
                     throws ApfloatRuntimeException

Returns this ApfloatImpl rounded towards zero.

Returns:

This ApfloatImpl rounded towards zero.

Throws:

ApfloatRuntimeException

absCeil

ApfloatImpl absCeil()
                    throws ApfloatRuntimeException

Returns this ApfloatImpl rounded away from zero.

Returns:

This ApfloatImpl rounded away from zero.

Throws:

ApfloatRuntimeException

size

long size()
          throws ApfloatRuntimeException

Returns the size of the mantissa of this ApfloatImpl.

Returns:

The size of the mantissa of this ApfloatImpl.

Throws:

ApfloatRuntimeException

Returns:

The signum of this ApfloatImpl.

See Also:

Apfloat.signum()

negate

ApfloatImpl negate()
                   throws ApfloatRuntimeException

doubleValue

double doubleValue()

Returns the value of the this number as a double. If the number is greater than Double.MAX_VALUE, then Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY is returned.

If the number is less than Double.MIN_VALUE, then Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY is returned.

If the number is very small in magnitude, underflow may happen and zero is returned.

Returns:

The numeric value represented by this object after conversion to type double.

longValue

long longValue()

Returns the value of the this number as a long. The fractional part is truncated towards zero.

If the number is greater than Long.MAX_VALUE, then Long.MAX_VALUE is returned.

If the number is less than Long.MIN_VALUE, then Long.MIN_VALUE is returned.

Returns:

The numeric value represented by this object after conversion to type long.

isOne

boolean isOne()
              throws ApfloatRuntimeException

Tests if this number is equal to 1.

Returns:

true if this number is equal to one, otherwise false.

Throws:

ApfloatRuntimeException

equalDigits

long equalDigits(ApfloatImpl x)
                 throws ApfloatRuntimeException
