java.math.BigInteger.byteValueExact()was introduced in Java 8. It is an inbuilt function which converts the value of BigInteger to a byte and checks for any lost information. If the value of BigInteger is greater than 127 or less than -128, the method will throw
ArithmeticExceptionas BigInteger doesn’t fit in byte range.
Syntax:public byte byteValueExact()Return Value:
This method returns the byte value of this BigInteger.
Exception:The method throws
ArithmeticExceptionif the value of BigInteger is greater than 127 or less than -128, as this range doesn’t fit in byte range.
Example:Input: 122 Output: 122 Explanation: 122 is given as input which is bigInteger and byte value of 122 is 122 Input: -46 Output: -46 Explanation: -46 is given as input which is bigInteger and byte value of -46 is -46 Input: 200 Output: ArithmeticException Explanation: When 200 is tried to convert to Byte, since 200 > 127 (greater than a Byte's range), therefore it throws an arithmetic exception.
Below programs illustrates byteValueExact() method of BigInteger class:
Program 1:To demonstrate byteValueExact() method for positive number <127
Java
// Java program to demonstrate byteValueExact()
// method of BigInteger Class
import java.math.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// Creating a BigInteger object
BigInteger big;
big = new BigInteger("122");
// print value of BigInteger
System.out.println("BigInteger value : "
+ big);
// convert big to the byte value
byte b1 = big.byteValueExact();
// print byte value
System.out.println("Byte converted value : "
+ b1);
}
}
Output:
BigInteger value : 122 Byte converted value : 122Program 2:
To demonstrate byteValueExact() method for negative number >-128
Java
// Java program to demonstrate byteValueExact()
// method of BigInteger Class
import java.math.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// Creating a BigInteger object
BigInteger big = new BigInteger("-46");
// print value of BigInteger
System.out.println("BigInteger value : "
+ big);
// convert big to the byte value
byte b1 = big.byteValueExact();
// print byte value
System.out.println("Byte converted value : "
+ b1);
}
}
Output:
BigInteger value : -46 Byte converted value : -46Program 3:
To demonstrate byteValueExact() method for negative number <-128. It will throw Arithmetic Exception
Java
// Java program to demonstrate byteValueExact()
// method of BigInteger Class
import java.math.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// Creating a BigInteger object
BigInteger big = new BigInteger("-200");
// print value of BigInteger
System.out.println("BigInteger value : "
+ big);
try {
// convert big to the byte value
byte b1 = big.byteValueExact();
// print byte value
System.out.println("Byte converted value : "
+ b1);
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception: " + e);
}
}
}
Output:
BigInteger value : -200 Exception: java.lang.ArithmeticException: BigInteger out of byte rangeProgram 4:
To demonstrate byteValueExact() method for positive number >127. It will throw Arithmetic Exception
Java
// Java program to demonstrate byteValueExact()
// method of BigInteger Class
import java.math.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// Creating a BigInteger object
BigInteger big = new BigInteger("200");
// print value of BigInteger
System.out.println("BigInteger value : "
+ big);
try {
// convert big to the byte value
byte b1 = big.byteValueExact();
// print byte value
System.out.println("Byte converted value : "
+ b1);
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception: " + e);
}
}
}
Output:
BigInteger value : 200 Exception: java.lang.ArithmeticException: BigInteger out of byte rangeReference: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/math/BigInteger.html#byteValueExact--
