Use setRoundingMode
, set the RoundingMode
explicitly to handle your issue with the half-even round, then use the format pattern for your required output.
Example:
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("#.####");
df.setRoundingMode(RoundingMode.CEILING);
for (Number n : Arrays.asList(12, 123.12345, 0.23, 0.1, 2341234.212431324)) {
Double d = n.doubleValue();
System.out.println(df.format(d));
}
gives the output:
12
123.1235
0.23
0.1
2341234.2125
EDIT: The original answer does not address the accuracy of the double values. That is fine if you don't care much whether it rounds up or down. But if you want accurate rounding, then you need to take the expected accuracy of the values into account. Floating point values have a binary representation internally. That means that a value like 2.7735 does not actually have that exact value internally. It can be slightly larger or slightly smaller. If the internal value is slightly smaller, then it will not round up to 2.7740. To remedy that situation, you need to be aware of the accuracy of the values that you are working with, and add or subtract that value before rounding. For example, when you know that your values are accurate up to 6 digits, then to round half-way values up, add that accuracy to the value:
Double d = n.doubleValue() + 1e-6;
To round down, subtract the accuracy.
Yes, it is possible:
public class Foo {
private int x;
public Foo() {
this(1);
}
public Foo(int x) {
this.x = x;
}
}
To chain to a particular superclass constructor instead of one in the same class, use super
instead of this
. Note that you can only chain to one constructor, and it has to be the first statement in your constructor body.

Best Solution
There are several ways to load resources, each with a slightly different meaning -
ClassLoader::getSystemResource()
uses the system classloader. This uses the classpath that was used to start the program. If you are in a web container such as tomcat, this will NOT pick up resources from your WAR file.Class<T>#getResource()
prepends the package name of the class to the resource name, and then delegates to its classloader. If your resources are stored in a package hierarchy that mirrors your classes, use this method.ClassLoader#getResource()
delegates to its parent classloader. This will eventually search for the resource all the way upto the system classloader.If you are confused, just stick to
ClassLoader#getResource()
