Class LongMath

java.lang.Object
com.google.common.math.LongMath
@GwtCompatible(emulated=true) public final class LongMath extends Object
A class for arithmetic on values of type long. Where possible, methods are defined and named analogously to their BigInteger counterparts.

The implementations of many methods in this class are based on material from Henry S. Warren, Jr.'s Hacker's Delight, (Addison Wesley, 2002).

Similar functionality for int and for BigInteger can be found in IntMath and BigIntegerMath respectively. For other common operations on long values, see Longs.

    • roundToDouble Link icon

      @GwtIncompatible public static double roundToDouble(long x, RoundingMode mode)
      Returns x, rounded to a double with the specified rounding mode. If x is precisely representable as a double, its double value will be returned; otherwise, the rounding will choose between the two nearest representable values with mode.

      For the case of RoundingMode.HALF_EVEN, this implementation uses the IEEE 754 default rounding mode: if the two nearest representable values are equally near, the one with the least significant bit zero is chosen. (In such cases, both of the nearest representable values are even integers; this method returns the one that is a multiple of a greater power of two.)

      Throws:
      ArithmeticException - if mode is RoundingMode.UNNECESSARY and x is not precisely representable as a double
