Class Floatjava.lang.Object
All Implemented Interfaces: Comparable, Serializable public final class Float extends Number implements ComparableThe Float class wraps a value of primitive type float in an object. An object of type Float contains a single field whose type is float. Float类以对象的形式对简单类型float进行包装，一个Float类型的对象包含一个类型为float的域。
In addition, this class provides several methods for converting a float to a String and a String to a float, as well as other constants and methods useful when dealing with a float. 而且，该类提供了很多将float转化成String或者String转化成float的方法，在处理float时其他的一些常量和方法同样有用。

Since: JDK1.1 Constructor Detail
Floatpublic Float(float value)
Constructs a newly allocated Float object that represents the primitive float argument.
Parameters: value - the value to be represented by the Float.Floatpublic Float(double value)
Constructs a newly allocated Float object that represents the argument converted to type float.
Parameters: value - the value to be represented by the Float.Floatpublic Float(String s)
throws NumberFormatException
Constructs a newly allocated Float object that represents the floating-point value of type float represented by the string. The string is converted to a float value as if by the valueOf method.
Parameters: s - a string to be converted to a Float. Throws: NumberFormatException - if the string does not contain a parsable number. See Also: valueOf(java.lang.String)Method Detail
toStringpublic static String toString(float f)
Returns a string representation of the float argument. All characters mentioned below are ASCII characters. If the argument is NaN, the result is the string "NaN". Otherwise, the result is a string that represents the sign and magnitude (absolute value) of the argument. If the sign is negative, the first character of the result is '-' ('\u002D'); if the sign is positive, no sign character appears in the result. As for the magnitude m: If m is infinity, it is represented by the characters "Infinity"; thus, positive infinity produces the result "Infinity" and negative infinity produces the result "-Infinity". If m is zero, it is represented by the characters "0.0"; thus, negative zero produces the result "-0.0" and positive zero produces the result "0.0". If m is greater than or equal to 10-3 but less than 107, then it is represented as the integer part of m, in decimal form with no leading zeroes, followed by '.' ('\u002E'), followed by one or more decimal digits representing the fractional part of m. If m is less than 10-3 or greater than or equal to 107, then it is represented in so-called "computerized scientific notation." Let n be the unique integer such that 10n <= m < 10n+1; then let a be the mathematically exact quotient of m and 10n so that 1 <= a < 10. The magnitude is then represented as the integer part of a, as a single decimal digit, followed by '.' ('\u002E'), followed by decimal digits representing the fractional part of a, followed by the letter 'E' ('\u0045'), followed by a representation of n as a decimal integer, as produced by the method Integer.toString(int). How many digits must be printed for the fractional part of m or a? There must be at least one digit to represent the fractional part, and beyond that as many, but only as many, more digits as are needed to uniquely distinguish the argument value from adjacent values of type float. That is, suppose that x is the exact mathematical value represented by the decimal representation produced by this method for a finite nonzero argument f. Then f must be the float value nearest to x; or, if two float values are equally close to x, then f must be one of them and the least significant bit of the significand of f must be 0. To create localized string representations of a floating-point value, use subclasses of NumberFormat.
Parameters: f - the float to be converted. Returns: a string representation of the argument.valueOfpublic static Float valueOf(String s)
throws NumberFormatException
Returns a Float object holding the float value represented by the argument string s. If s is null, then a NullPointerException is thrown.
Leading and trailing whitespace characters in s are ignored. The rest of s should constitute a FloatValue as described by the lexical syntax rules:
FloatValue: Signopt NaN Signopt Infinity Signopt FloatingPointLiteral where Sign and FloatingPointLiteral are as defined in §3.10.2 of the Java Language Specification. If s does not have the form of a FloatValue, then a NumberFormatException is thrown. Otherwise, s is regarded as representing an exact decimal value in the usual "computerized scientific notation"; this exact decimal value is then conceptually converted to an "infinitely precise" binary value that is then rounded to type float by the usual round-to-nearest rule of IEEE 754 floating-point arithmetic, which includes preserving the sign of a zero value. Finally, a Float object representing this float value is returned. To interpret localized string representations of a floating-point value, use subclasses of NumberFormat.
Note that trailing format specifiers, specifiers that determine the type of a floating-point literal (1.0f is a float value; 1.0d is a double value), do not influence the results of this method. In other words, the numerical value of the input string is converted directly to the target floating-point type. In general, the two-step sequence of conversions, string to double followed by double to float, is not equivalent to converting a string directly to float. For example, if first converted to an intermediate double and then to float, the string
"1.00000017881393421514957253748434595763683319091796875001d"
results in the float value 1.0000002f; if the string is converted directly to float, 1.0000001f results.
Parameters: s - the string to be parsed. Returns: a Float object holding the value represented by the String argument. Throws: NumberFormatException - if the string does not contain a parsable number.parseFloatpublic static float parseFloat(String s)
throws NumberFormatException
Returns a new float initialized to the value represented by the specified String, as performed by the valueOf method of class Float.
Parameters: s - the string to be parsed. Returns: the float value represented by the string argument. Throws: NumberFormatException - if the string does not contain a parsable float. Since: 1.2 See Also: valueOf(String)isNaNpublic static boolean isNaN(float v)
Returns true if the specified number is a Not-a-Number (NaN) value, false otherwise.
Parameters: v - the value to be tested. Returns: true if the argument is NaN; false otherwise.isInfinitepublic static boolean isInfinite(float v)
Returns true if the specified number is infinitely large in magnitude, false otherwise.
Parameters: v - the value to be tested. Returns: true if the argument is positive infinity or negative infinity; false otherwise.isNaNpublic boolean isNaN()

Returns a string representation of this Float object. The primitive float value represented by this object is converted to a String exactly as if by the method toString of one argument.
Overrides: toString in class ObjectReturns: a String representation of this object. See Also: toString(float)byteValuepublic byte byteValue()

Overrides: byteValue in class NumberReturns: the float value represented by this object converted to type byteshortValuepublic short shortValue()
Returns the value of this Float as a short (by casting to a short).
Overrides: shortValue in class NumberReturns: the float value represented by this object converted to type short Since: JDK1.1 intValuepublic int intValue()
Returns the value of this Float as an int (by casting to type int).

Returns the float value of this Float object.
Specified by: floatValue in class NumberReturns: the float value represented by this objectdoubleValuepublic double doubleValue()
Returns the double value of this Float object.
Specified by: doubleValue in class NumberReturns: the float value represented by this object is converted to type double and the result of the conversion is returned.hashCodepublic int hashCode()
Returns a hash code for this Float object. The result is the integer bit representation, exactly as produced by the method floatToIntBits(float), of the primitive float value represented by this Float object.
Overrides: hashCode in class ObjectReturns: a hash code value for this object. See Also: Object.equals(java.lang.Object), Hashtableequalspublic boolean equals(Object obj)
Compares this object against the specified object. The result is true if and only if the argument is not null and is a Float object that represents a float with the same value as the float represented by this object. For this purpose, two float values are considered to be the same if and only if the method floatToIntBits(float) returns the identical int value when applied to each. Note that in most cases, for two instances of class Float, f1 and f2, the value of f1.equals(f2) is true if and only if
f1.floatValue() == f2.floatValue()
also has the value true. However, there are two exceptions:
If f1 and f2 both represent Float.NaN, then the equals method returns true, even though Float.NaN==Float.NaN has the value false. If f1 represents +0.0f while f2 represents -0.0f, or vice versa, the equal test has the value false, even though 0.0f==-0.0f has the value true. This definition allows hash tables to operate properly.
Overrides: equals in class ObjectParameters: obj - the object to be compared Returns: true if the objects are the same; false otherwise. See Also: floatToIntBits(float)floatToIntBitspublic static int floatToIntBits(float value)
Returns a representation of the specified floating-point value according to the IEEE 754 floating-point "single format" bit layout. Bit 31 (the bit that is selected by the mask 0x80000000) represents the sign of the floating-point number. Bits 30-23 (the bits that are selected by the mask 0x7f800000) represent the exponent. Bits 22-0 (the bits that are selected by the mask 0x007fffff) represent the significand (sometimes called the mantissa) of the floating-point number.
If the argument is positive infinity, the result is 0x7f800000.
If the argument is negative infinity, the result is 0xff800000.
If the argument is NaN, the result is 0x7fc00000.
In all cases, the result is an integer that, when given to the intBitsToFloat(int) method, will produce a floating-point value the same as the argument to floatToIntBits (except all NaN values are collapsed to a single "canonical" NaN value).
Parameters: value - a floating-point number. Returns: the bits that represent the floating-point number.floatToRawIntBitspublic static int floatToRawIntBits(float value)
Returns a representation of the specified floating-point value according to the IEEE 754 floating-point "single format" bit layout, preserving Not-a-Number (NaN) values. Bit 31 (the bit that is selected by the mask 0x80000000) represents the sign of the floating-point number. Bits 30-23 (the bits that are selected by the mask 0x7f800000) represent the exponent. Bits 22-0 (the bits that are selected by the mask 0x007fffff) represent the significand (sometimes called the mantissa) of the floating-point number.
If the argument is positive infinity, the result is 0x7f800000.
If the argument is negative infinity, the result is 0xff800000.
If the argument is NaN, the result is the integer representing the actual NaN value. Unlike the floatToIntBits method, intToRawIntBits does not collapse all the bit patterns encoding a NaN to a single "canonical" NaN value.
In all cases, the result is an integer that, when given to the intBitsToFloat(int) method, will produce a floating-point value the same as the argument to floatToRawIntBits.
Parameters: value - a floating-point number. Returns: the bits that represent the floating-point number.intBitsToFloatpublic static float intBitsToFloat(int bits)
Returns the float value corresponding to a given bit represention. The argument is considered to be a representation of a floating-point value according to the IEEE 754 floating-point "single format" bit layout. If the argument is 0x7f800000, the result is positive infinity.
If the argument is 0xff800000, the result is negative infinity.
If the argument is any value in the range 0x7f800001 through 0x7fffffff or in the range 0xff800001 through 0xffffffff, the result is a NaN. No IEEE 754 floating-point operation provided by Java can distinguish between two NaN values of the same type with different bit patterns. Distinct values of NaN are only distinguishable by use of the Float.floatToRawIntBits method.
In all other cases, let s, e, and m be three values that can be computed from the argument:
int s = ((bits >> 31) == 0) ? 1 : -1;
int e = ((bits >> 23) & 0xff);
int m = (e == 0) ?
(bits & 0x7fffff) << 1 :
(bits & 0x7fffff) | 0x800000;
Then the floating-point result equals the value of the mathematical expression s·m·2e-150. Note that this method may not be able to return a float NaN with exactly same bit pattern as the int argument. IEEE 754 distinguishes between two kinds of NaNs, quiet NaNs and signaling NaNs. The differences between the two kinds of NaN are generally not visible in Java. Arithmetic operations on signaling NaNs turn them into quiet NaNs with a different, but often similar, bit pattern. However, on some processors merely copying a signaling NaN also performs that conversion. In particular, copying a signaling NaN to return it to the calling method may perform this conversion. So intBitsToFloat may not be able to return a float with a signaling NaN bit pattern. Consequently, for some int values, floatToRawIntBits(intBitsToFloat(start)) may not equal start. Moreover, which particular bit patterns represent signaling NaNs is platform dependent; although all NaN bit patterns, quiet or signaling, must be in the NaN range identified above.
Parameters: bits - an integer. Returns: the float floating-point value with the same bit pattern.compareTopublic int compareTo(Float anotherFloat)
Compares two Float objects numerically. There are two ways in which comparisons performed by this method differ from those performed by the Java language numerical comparison operators (<, <=, ==, >= >) when applied to primitive float values: Float.NaN is considered by this method to be equal to itself and greater than all other float values (including Float.POSITIVE_INFINITY). 0.0f is considered by this method to be greater than -0.0f. This ensures that Float.compareTo(Object) (which forwards its behavior to this method) obeys the general contract for Comparable.compareTo, and that the natural order on Floats is consistent with equals.
Parameters: anotherFloat - the Float to be compared. Returns: the value 0 if anotherFloat is numerically equal to this Float; a value less than 0 if this Float is numerically less than anotherFloat; and a value greater than 0 if this Float is numerically greater than anotherFloat. Since: 1.2 See Also: Comparable.compareTo(Object)compareTopublic int compareTo(Object o)
Compares this Float object to another object. If the object is a Float, this function behaves like compareTo(Float). Otherwise, it throws a ClassCastException (as Float objects are comparable only to other Float objects).
Specified by: compareTo in interface ComparableParameters: o - the Object to be compared. Returns: the value 0 if the argument is a Float numerically equal to this Float; a value less than 0 if the argument is a Float numerically greater than this Float; and a value greater than 0 if the argument is a Float numerically less than this Float . Throws: ClassCastException - if the argument is not a Float. Since: 1.2 See Also: Comparablecomparepublic static int compare(float f1,
float f2)
Compares the two specified float values. The sign of the integer value returned is the same as that of the integer that would be returned by the call: new Float(f1).compareTo(new Float(f2))
Parameters: f1 - the first float to compare. f2 - the second float to compare. Returns: the value 0 if f1 is numerically equal to f2; a value less than 0 if f1 is numerically less than f2; and a value greater than 0 if f1 is numerically greater than f2.
