        Returns:
        true if that condition holds

      • isFinite

        public boolean isFinite()
        Yields true if this number is finite (i.e. not infinity).
        Returns:
        true if that condition holds

      • is

        public boolean is​(int n)
        Yields true if this number is number represents exactly the given integer.
        Parameters:
        n - the integer to test
        Returns:
        true if that condition holds

      • isPositiveOrZero

        public boolean isPositiveOrZero()
        Yields true if this number is positive or equal to zero.
        Returns:
        true if that condition holds

      • isNegative

        public boolean isNegative()
        Yields true if this number is negative.
        Returns:
        true if that condition holds

      • isNaN

        public boolean isNaN()
        Yields true if this number is not a number, that is, obtained from an operation that does not produce a result (e.g. infinity divided by infinity).
        Returns:
        true if that condition holds

      • add

        public MathNumber add​(MathNumber other)
        Yields the result of this + other. If one of them is not a number (according to isNaN()), then NaN is returned.
        Parameters:
        other - the other operand
        Returns:
        this + other

      • subtract

        public MathNumber subtract​(MathNumber other)
        Yields the result of this - other. If one of them is not a number (according to isNaN()), then NaN is returned.
        Parameters:

        Parameters:
        other - the divisor

        Returns:
        the absolute value of this

      • roundUp

        public MathNumber roundUp()
        Rounds down this number to the next integer value towards plus infinity (see RoundingMode.CEILING). If this number is infinite or is not a number (according to isInfinite() and isNaN(), respectively), this is returned without rounding.
        Returns:
        this number rounded up towards plus infinity

      • roundDown

        public MathNumber roundDown()
