问题
I'm trying to get NSDecimalNumber to print out large numbers, 15 or more digits. At 15 digits I see 111,111,111,111,111. Above 15 digits I see 1,111,111,111,111,110 even though the number being formatted is 1111111111111111.
An example to illustrate my problem:
NSNumberFormatter *formatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init];
[formatter setNumberStyle:NSNumberFormatterDecimalStyle];
[formatter setMaximumSignificantDigits:25];
[formatter setUsesSignificantDigits:true];
NSDecimalNumber* test = [NSDecimalNumber decimalNumberWithString:@"12345678901234567890"];
NSString* output = [formatter stringFromNumber:test];
NSLog( @"num value: %@", test );
NSLog( @"str value: %@", output );
And the output looks like:
2010-09-16 09:24:16.783 SimpleCalc[739:207] num value: 12345678901234567890
2010-09-16 09:24:16.784 SimpleCalc[739:207] str value: 12,345,678,901,234,600,000
What silly thing have I missed?
回答1:
The problem here is that NSNumberFormatter does not handle NSDecimalNumbers internally, they are converted to double and you are seeing the resulting loss in precision. From the docs:
The representation encompasses integers, floats, and doubles; floats and doubles can be formatted to a specified decimal position.
You should probably be taking a look at the - (NSString *)descriptionWithLocale:(NSDictionary *)locale method on NSDecimalNumber.
回答2:
Or NSDecimalString(). Take your NSDecimalNumber (e.g. myDecimalNumber), extract the NSDecimal via decimalValue (NSDecimal decimal = [myDecimalNumber decimalValue]) and create an NSString with the NSString *myString = NSDecimalString(decimal) function.
