Java bigdecimal subtract

Example below demonstrates working of bigdecimal
class subtract method. Method returns bigdecimal
object values. This bigdecimal class method
subtracts the object value( in which the method is invoked) by the value of
object specified.
In shortly, method subtracts the specified object value from this.object
value.
Scale of the result is equivalent to the output of bigdecimal class max method. At the left operand
position of the max method, scale of this.object
value is located & at right operand, scale of the specified object
value is located.
Syntatically its look like max (scale of this.object
value, scale of the value of specified object).
Method generates NumberFormatException,
if it finds the bigdecimal value other than integers
and double types values.
Syntax for using the method: public
BigDecimal subtract(BigDecimal subtrahend)
Suppose three bigdecimal objects x, y & z then
z = x.subtract(y);
System.out.println(z);
Java_bigdecimal_subtract.java
import java.math.BigDecimal;
public class Java_bigdecimal_subtract {
public static void main(String args[]) {
double valueD = 500.000, valued = 200.00;
BigDecimal left_operand = new BigDecimal(valueD),
right_operand = new BigDecimal(valued),
result = new BigDecimal(0);
result = left_operand.subtract(right_operand);
System.out.println(" \nleft operand value :" +
" " + left_operand
+ "\nright_operand value : " + right_operand
+ "\nmethod generated value : " + result);
valueD = 100.23;
valued = 123;
left_operand = new BigDecimal(valueD);
right_operand = new BigDecimal(valued);
result = new BigDecimal(0);
result = left_operand.subtract(right_operand);
System.out.println(" \nleft operand value : "
+ left_operand
+ "\nright_operand value : " + right_operand
+ "\nmethod generated value : " + result);
}
