DecimalFormat isParseBigDecimal() method in Java

The isParseBigDecimal() method of the DecimalFormat class in Java is used to check whether the parse() method of the DecimalFormat class returns a value of BigInteger type or not.

Syntax:

Parameters: This method does not accepts any parameter.

Return Value: This method returns a boolean value. It returns true if the parse method returns a BigDecimal value otherwise it returns False.

Below programs illustrate the above method:

Program 1:




// Java program to illustrate the
// isParseBigDecimal() method
  
import java.text.DecimalFormat;
  
public class GFG {
  
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // Create a DecimalFormat instance
        DecimalFormat deciFormat = new DecimalFormat();
  
        System.out.println(deciFormat.isParseBigDecimal());
    }
}


Output:

false

Program 2:




// Java program to illustrate the
// isParseBigDecimal() method
  
import java.text.DecimalFormat;
  
public class GFG {
  
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // Create a DecimalFormat instance
        DecimalFormat deciFormat = new DecimalFormat();
        deciFormat.setParseBigDecimal(true);
  
        System.out.println(deciFormat.isParseBigDecimal());
    }
}


Output:

true
