Exponential number to regular number.

Hi,
I have a requirement, where I have to sum up all the amount values, which are coming in lakhs,billions or with decimal values etc, the final amount is getting converted to Exponential number. I don't want that to be getting converted to exponential format. I want a regular number. Can you please share how to do that. here my currency is USD or GDP.

EX: 5.820536335555559E13
6.06375E7
1.84411675E8
-7.253685E7
-1.150023E8

with out loosing the precession I have to get the whole number. Please guide me on this requirement. Thanks in advance.

DecimalFormat

db

NumberFormat formatter = new DecimalFormat("#.####");

formatter.format(numberwithExponential);

will this work, wont I loose any precession value? how it varies in #.###, ##.##,####,####.##### etc., as I wont be knowing the total value, what notation I need to use. how to use this format.

First off, there's no such beast as a numberwithExponential. A number is a value. That number may be represented in various ways.

As to your follow-up question, read the API, experiment with a few formats and values, and come back here if you still have a problem.

HI Darry,
Thank you, here that "numberwithExponential" is any exponential number ( EX: 5.820536335555559E13
6.06375E7
1.84411675E8
-7.253685E7
-1.150023E8)

Ok Thanks, I will go through the API, what I have understood is it is round off of the decimals (#.###) to 3 decimals.

Thank You.
