Method Detail

valueOf

public static Scale valueOf(int digits)

of
```
public static Scale of(float x)
```

of
```
public static Scale of(double x)
```

of

public static Scale of(BigDecimal x)

add
```
public Scale add(int n)
```

multiply

public Scale multiply(int multiplier)

applyTo

public BigDecimal applyTo(BigDecimal x)

getErrorBound
```
public BigDecimal getErrorBound()
```
The error a computation with this scale should not exceed. This is just half of an ulp for values with this scale, thus computation results should be correct to this scale after rounding.

Returns:

maximum allowed error

digits
```
public int digits()
```

toString
```
public String toString()
```
Overrides:

toString in class Object

equals
```
public boolean equals(Object o)
```
Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode
```
public int hashCode()
```
Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

compareTo
```
public int compareTo(Scale other)
```
Specified by:

compareTo in interface Comparable<Scale>
