Scanner nextBigDecimal() method in Java with Examples
The nextBigDecimal() method of java.util.Scanner class scans the next token of the input as a BigDecimal. If the next token matches the Decimal regular expression defined above then the token is converted into a BigDecimal value as if by removing all group separators, mapping non-ASCII digits into ASCII digits via the Character.digit, and passing the resulting string to the BigDecimal(String) constructor.
Syntax:
public BigDecimal nextBigDecimal()
Parameters: The function does not accepts any parameter.
Return Value: This function returns the BigDecimal scanned from the input.
Exceptions: The function throws three exceptions as described below:
- InputMismatchException: if the next token is not a valid BigDecimal or is out of range
- NoSuchElementException: throws if input is exhausted
- IllegalStateException: throws if this scanner is closed
Below programs illustrate the above function:
Program 1:
import java.util.*;
public class GFG1 {
public static void main(String[] argv)
throws Exception
{
String s = "Gfg 9 + 6 = 12.0" ;
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(s);
while (scanner.hasNext()) {
if (scanner.hasNextBigDecimal()) {
System.out.println( "Found BigDecimal value :"
+ scanner.nextBigDecimal());
}
else {
System.out.println( "Not found BigDecimal() value :"
+ scanner.next());
}
}
scanner.close();
}
}
|
Output:
Not found BigDecimal() value :Gfg
Found BigDecimal value :9
Not found BigDecimal() value :+
Found BigDecimal value :6
Not found BigDecimal() value :=
Found BigDecimal value :12.0
Program 2: To demonstrate InputMismatchException
import java.util.*;
public class GFG1 {
public static void main(String[] argv)
throws Exception
{
try {
String s = "Gfg 9 + 6 = 12.0" ;
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(s);
while (scanner.hasNext()) {
System.out.println( "Next BigDecimal value :"
+ scanner.nextBigDecimal());
}
scanner.close();
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println( "Exception thrown: " + e);
}
}
}
|
Output:
Exception thrown: java.util.InputMismatchException
Program 3: To demonstrate NoSuchElementException
import java.util.*;
public class GFG1 {
public static void main(String[] argv)
throws Exception
{
try {
String s = "Gfg" ;
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(s);
for ( int i = 0 ; i < 5 ; i++) {
if (scanner.hasNextBigDecimal()) {
System.out.println( "Found BigDecimal value :"
+ scanner.nextBigDecimal());
}
else {
System.out.println( "Not found BigDecimal value :"
+ scanner.next());
}
}
scanner.close();
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println( "Exception thrown: " + e);
}
}
}
|
Output:
Not found BigDecimal value :Gfg
Exception thrown: java.util.NoSuchElementException
Program 4: To demonstrate IllegalStateException
import java.util.*;
public class GFG1 {
public static void main(String[] argv)
throws Exception
{
try {
String s = "Gfg 9 + 6 = 12.0" ;
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(s);
scanner.close();
System.out.println( "Scanner Closed" );
System.out.println( "Trying to get "
+ "next BigDecimal value" );
while (scanner.hasNext()) {
if (scanner.hasNextBigDecimal()) {
System.out.println( "Found BigDecimal value :"
+ scanner.nextBigDecimal());
}
else {
System.out.println( "Not found BigDecimal value :"
+ scanner.next());
}
}
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println( "Exception thrown: " + e);
}
}
}
|
Output:
Scanner Closed
Trying to get next BigDecimal value
Exception thrown: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Scanner closed
