BigDecimal Class divideToIntegralValue() method

Syntax:

    public BigDecimal divideToIntegralValue(BigDecimal divsr);
    public BigDecimal divideToIntegralValue(BigDecimal divsr, MathContext ma_co);
  • divideToIntegralValue() method is available in java.math package.
  • divideToIntegralValue(BigDecimal divsr) method is used to get a BigDecimal and its value is the non-fractional part of the quotient is calculated by using (this BigDecimal/ BigDecimal divsr) and the scale is calculated by using (this BigDecimal.scale() – BigDecimal divsr.scale()).
  • divideToIntegralValue(BigDecimal divsr, MathContext ma_co) method is used to get a BigDecimal and its value is the non-fractional part of the quotient is calculated by using (this BigDecimal/ BigDecimal divsr) along with rounding based on the given MathContext settings.
  • These methods may throw an exception at the time of division.
    ArithmeticException: This exception may throw when the given parameter holds the value 0 or when ma_co.precision > 0.
  • These are non-static methods and it is accessible with class objects and if we try to access these methods with the class name then we will get an error.

Parameter(s):

  • In the first case, divideToIntegralValue(BigDecimal divsr),
    • BigDecimal divsr – represents the divisor by this BigDecimal value is to be divided.
  • In the first case, divideToIntegralValue(BigDecimal divsr, MathContext ma_co),
    • BigDecimal divsr – Similar as defined in the first case.
    • MathContext ma_co – represents the context setting to use in rounding.

Return value:

In both the cases, the return type of the method is BigDecimal, it returns the non-fractional part of the result [this BigDecimal/ BigDecimal divsr]

Example:

// Java program to demonstrate the example 
// of divideToIntegralValue(BigDecimal divsr, MathContext    ma_co) 
// method of BigDecimal

import java.math.*;
public class DivideToIntegralValueOfBD {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        // Initialize three variables divi1,
        // divi2 and str 
        String divi1 = "120.12";
        String divi2 = "40.55";
        String str = "5";

        // Initialize three BigDecimal objects and
        // one MathContext
        BigDecimal b_dec1 = new BigDecimal(divi1);
        BigDecimal b_dec2 = new BigDecimal(divi2);
        BigDecimal b_dec3 = new BigDecimal(str);
        MathContext ma_co = new MathContext(1, RoundingMode.CEILING);

        System.out.println("divideToIntegralValue(BigDecimal): ");

        // divides this BigDecimal (b_dec1) by the
        // given BigDecimal (b_dec3) and return the BigDecimal
        // object that holds the integral part of the quotient
        BigDecimal quotient = b_dec1.divideToIntegralValue(b_dec3);
        System.out.println("b_dec1.divideToIntegralValue(b_dec3): " + quotient);

        System.out.println(" ");

        System.out.println("divideToIntegralValue(BigDecimal,MathContext): ");

        // divides this BigDecimal (b_dec2) by the
        // given BigDecimal (b_dec3) based on the given
        // context setting and return the BigDecimal object
        // that holds the integral part of the quotient
        quotient = b_dec2.divideToIntegralValue(b_dec3, ma_co);
        System.out.println("b_dec2.divideToIntegralValue(b_dec3,ma_co): " + quotient);
    }
}

Output

divideToIntegralValue(BigDecimal): 
b_dec1.divideToIntegralValue(b_dec3): 24.00
 
divideToIntegralValue(BigDecimal,MathContext): 
b_dec2.divideToIntegralValue(b_dec3,ma_co): 8
