The java Scanner hasNextBigDecimal() method returns true if the next token in this scanner's input can be interpreted as a BigDecimal using the nextBigDecimal() method. The scanner does not advance past any input.
DeclarationFollowing is the declaration for java.util.Scanner.hasNextBigDecimal() method
public boolean hasNextBigDecimal()Parameters
NA
Return ValueThis method returns true if and only if this scanner's next token is a valid BigDecimal
ExceptionIllegalStateException − if this scanner is closed
Checking Next Token as BigDecimal Using Scanner On a String ExampleThe following example shows the usage of Java Scanner hasNextBigDecimal() method to check if next token is a BigDecimal. We've created a scanner object using a given string. Then we checked each token to be BigDecimal and printed. In the end scanner is closed using close() method.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.Scanner; public class ScannerDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { String s = "Hello World! 3 + 3.0 = 6"; // create a new scanner with the specified String Object Scanner scanner = new Scanner(s); while (scanner.hasNext()) { // check if the scanner's next token is a BigDecimal if(scanner.hasNextBigDecimal()){ // print what is scanned System.out.println(scanner.next()); } else { scanner.next(); } } // close the scanner scanner.close(); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
3 3.0 6Checking Next Token as BigDecimal Using Scanner On User Input Example
The following example shows the usage of Java Scanner hasNextBigDecimal() method to check if next token is a BigDecimal. We've created a scanner object using System.in class. Then we checked each token to be BigDecimal and printed. In the end scanner is closed using close() method.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.Scanner; public class ScannerDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // create a new scanner with System Input Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in); // check if the scanner's next token is a BigDecimal if(scanner.hasNextBigDecimal()){ // print what is scanned System.out.println(scanner.next()); } else { scanner.next(); } // close the scanner scanner.close(); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result − (where we've entered 3.0.)
3.0 3.0Checking Next Token as BigDecimal Using Scanner In a Properties File Example
The following example shows the usage of Java Scanner hasNextBigDecimal() method to check if next token is a BigDecimal. We've created a scanner object using a file properties.txt. Then we checked each token to be BigDecimal and printed. In the end scanner is closed using close() method.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.io.File; import java.io.FileNotFoundException; import java.util.Scanner; public class ScannerDemo { public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException { // create a new scanner with a file as input Scanner scanner = new Scanner(new File("properties.txt")); while (scanner.hasNext()) { // check if the scanner's next token is a BigDecimal if(scanner.hasNextBigDecimal()){ // print what is scanned System.out.println(scanner.next()); } else { scanner.next(); } } // close the scanner scanner.close(); } }
Assuming we have a file properties.txt available in your CLASSPATH, with the following content. This file will be used as an input for our example program −
Hello World! 3 3.0 6Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
3 3.0 6
