is there anyway to convert from Double to BigInteger?

Question

Is there anyway to convert from double value to BigInteger?

double doubleValue = 64654679846513164.2;
BigInteger bigInteger = (BigInteger) doubleValue;

I try to cast it but it didn't work.

Answer 1

If you want to store the integral part of the double into a BigInteger, then you can convert it into a BigDecimal and then into a BigInteger:

BigInteger k = BigDecimal.valueOf(doubleValue).toBigInteger();

Answer 2

BigInteger is made for holding arbitrary precision integer numbers, not decimals. You can use the BigDecimal class to hold a double.

BigDecimal k = BigDecimal.valueOf(doublevalue);

In general, you cannot type cast a Java primitive into another class. The exceptions that I know about are the classes extending Number, such as the Long and Integer wrapper classes, which allow you to cast an int value into an Integer, and so on.
