The java.math.BigDecimal.round(MathContext m) is an inbuilt method in Java that returns a BigDecimal value rounded according to the MathContext settings. If the precision setting is 0 then no rounding takes place.
Syntax:
public BigDecimal round(MathContext m)
Parameters: The method accepts a single parameter m which refers to the context to use that is the value up to which the BigDecimal value is to be rounded off.
Return value: This method returns a BigDecimal rounded according to the MathContext settings.
Below programs illustrate the working of java.math.BigDecimal.round(MathContext m) method:
Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate the // round() method import java.math.*;   public class Gfg {       public static void main(String[] args)     {         // Assign value to BigDecimal object b1         BigDecimal b1 = new BigDecimal( "4.2585" );           MathContext m = new MathContext( 4 ); // 4 precision           // b1 is rounded using m         BigDecimal b2 = b1.round(m);           // Print b2 value         System.out.println( "The value of " + b1 +         " after rounding is " + b2);     } } |
The value of 4.2585 after rounding is 4.259
Program 2:
// Java program to demonstrate the // round() method import java.math.*;   public class gfg {       public static void main(String[] args)     {         // Assigning value to BigDecimal object b1         BigDecimal b1 = new BigDecimal( "-4.2585" );           MathContext m = new MathContext( 4 ); // 4 precision           // b1 is rounded using m         BigDecimal b2 = b1.round(m);           // Print b2 value         System.out.println( "The value of " + b1 +         " after rounding is " + b2);     } } |
The value of -4.2585 after rounding is -4.259
