Java BigDecimal max() method

The max() method of java BigDecimal class is used to obtain a maximum value between BigDecimal and val.

Syntax:

Parameter:

Val: value with which the maximum is to be computed.

Exception:

Returns:

It returns maximum value between two BigDecimal values. In case if both are equal, first BigDecimal will be returned.

Example 1

import java.math.BigDecimal;  
public class BigDecimalMaxExample1 {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		 
          //Creating BigDecimal objects
          BigDecimal bdValue_1, bdValue_2, bdMaxValue;
        
          // Assigning value into BigDecimal objects
          bdValue_1 = new BigDecimal("152207");
          bdValue_2 = new BigDecimal("152208");
         
          // It returns Max value
          bdMaxValue = bdValue_1 .max(bdValue_2);
          
          // Displaying max  value
          System.out.println("Max Value among " + bdValue_1 + 
                       " and " + bdValue_2 + " is = " +bdMaxValue);
	}
}

Test it Now

Output:

Max Value among 152207 and 152208 is = 152208

Example 2

import java.math.BigDecimal;  
public class BigDecimalMaxExample2 {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		 
		  //Creating BigDecimal objects
          BigDecimal bdValue_1, bdValue_2, bdMaxValue;
        
          // Assigning value into BigDecimal objects
          bdValue_1 = new BigDecimal("-55");
          bdValue_2 = new BigDecimal("-44");
         
          // It returns Max value
          bdMaxValue = bdValue_1 .max(bdValue_2);
          
          // Displaying max  value
          System.out.println("Max Value among " + bdValue_1 + 
                       " and " + bdValue_2 + " is = " +bdMaxValue);
	}
}

Test it Now

Output:

Max Value among -55 and -44 is = -44

Example 3

import java.math.BigDecimal;  
public class BigDecimalMaxExample3 {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		 
		  //Creating BigDecimal objects
          BigDecimal bdValue_1, bdValue_2, bdMaxValue;
        
          // Assigning value into BigDecimal objects
          bdValue_1 = new BigDecimal("145");
          bdValue_2 = new BigDecimal("145");
         
          // It returns Max value
          bdMaxValue = bdValue_1 .max(bdValue_2);
          
          // Displaying max  value
          System.out.println("Max Value among " + bdValue_1 + 
                       " and " + bdValue_2 + " is = " +bdMaxValue);
	}
}

Test it Now

Output:

Max Value among 145 and 145 is = 145

Example 4

import java.math.BigDecimal;  
public class BigDecimalMaxExample4 {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		 
		  //Creating BigDecimal objects
          BigDecimal bdValue_1, bdValue_2, bdMaxValue;
        
          // Assigning value into BigDecimal objects
          bdValue_1 = new BigDecimal("678.4008");
          bdValue_2 = new BigDecimal("678.4009");
         
          // It returns Max value
          bdMaxValue = bdValue_1 .max(bdValue_2);
          
          // Displaying max  value
          System.out.println("Max Value among " + bdValue_1 + 
                       " and " + bdValue_2 + " is = " +bdMaxValue);
	}
}

Test it Now

Output:

Max Value among 678.4008 and 678.4009 is = 678.4009
