摘自Bloch, J.， Effective Java，(第二版，第48项。第3版，项目60):

float和double类型是 尤其不适用于货币 因为这是不可能的 表示0.1(或任何其他。 10的负次方)作为浮点数或 完全的两倍。 例如，假设您有1.03美元 你花了42c。多少钱? 你走了? System.out.println(1.03 - .42); 输出0.6100000000000001。 解决这个问题的正确方法是 使用BigDecimal, int或long 用于货币计算。

虽然BigDecimal有一些警告(请参阅当前接受的答案)。

如前所述，“把钱表示为双位数或浮点数，一开始可能看起来不错，因为软件会消除微小的错误，但当你对不精确的数字进行更多的加减乘除时，随着错误的增加，你会失去越来越多的精度。”这使得浮点数和双精度数不适用于处理货币，因为货币需要精确计算以10为底数的倍数。”

最后，Java有一个标准的方法来处理货币和金钱!

JSR 354:货币和货币API

JSR 354提供了一个API，用于表示、传输和执行Money和Currency的综合计算。你可以从以下连结下载:

JSR 354:货币和货币API下载

该规范包括以下内容:

用于处理例如货币数量和货币的API 支持可互换实现的api 用于创建实现类实例的工厂 用于计算、转换和格式化货币金额的功能 用于处理Money和Currencies的Java API，计划包含在Java 9中。 所有规范类和接口都位于javax.money中。*包。

JSR 354: Money and Currency API示例:

创建一个moneyaryamount并将其打印到控制台的示例如下:

MonetaryAmountFactory<?> amountFactory = Monetary.getDefaultAmountFactory();
MonetaryAmount monetaryAmount = amountFactory.setCurrency(Monetary.getCurrency("EUR")).setNumber(12345.67).create();
MonetaryAmountFormat format = MonetaryFormats.getAmountFormat(Locale.getDefault());
System.out.println(format.format(monetaryAmount));

当使用参考实现API时，必要的代码要简单得多:

MonetaryAmount monetaryAmount = Money.of(12345.67, "EUR");
MonetaryAmountFormat format = MonetaryFormats.getAmountFormat(Locale.getDefault());
System.out.println(format.format(monetaryAmount));

该API还支持monetaryamount的计算:

MonetaryAmount monetaryAmount = Money.of(12345.67, "EUR");
MonetaryAmount otherMonetaryAmount = monetaryAmount.divide(2).add(Money.of(5, "EUR"));

CurrencyUnit和moneyaryamount

// getting CurrencyUnits by locale
CurrencyUnit yen = MonetaryCurrencies.getCurrency(Locale.JAPAN);
CurrencyUnit canadianDollar = MonetaryCurrencies.getCurrency(Locale.CANADA);

moneyaryamount有各种方法，允许访问指定的货币，数字金额，其精度和更多:

MonetaryAmount monetaryAmount = Money.of(123.45, euro);
CurrencyUnit currency = monetaryAmount.getCurrency();
NumberValue numberValue = monetaryAmount.getNumber();

int intValue = numberValue.intValue(); // 123
double doubleValue = numberValue.doubleValue(); // 123.45
long fractionDenominator = numberValue.getAmountFractionDenominator(); // 100
long fractionNumerator = numberValue.getAmountFractionNumerator(); // 45
int precision = numberValue.getPrecision(); // 5

// NumberValue extends java.lang.Number.
// So we assign numberValue to a variable of type Number
Number number = numberValue;

monearyamount可以使用舍入运算符进行舍入:

CurrencyUnit usd = MonetaryCurrencies.getCurrency("USD");
MonetaryAmount dollars = Money.of(12.34567, usd);
MonetaryOperator roundingOperator = MonetaryRoundings.getRounding(usd);
MonetaryAmount roundedDollars = dollars.with(roundingOperator); // USD 12.35

当使用monearyamount的集合时，可以使用一些不错的实用程序方法进行过滤、排序和分组。

List<MonetaryAmount> amounts = new ArrayList<>();
amounts.add(Money.of(2, "EUR"));
amounts.add(Money.of(42, "USD"));
amounts.add(Money.of(7, "USD"));
amounts.add(Money.of(13.37, "JPY"));
amounts.add(Money.of(18, "USD"));

自定义monearyamount操作

// A monetary operator that returns 10% of the input MonetaryAmount
// Implemented using Java 8 Lambdas
MonetaryOperator tenPercentOperator = (MonetaryAmount amount) -> {
    BigDecimal baseAmount = amount.getNumber().numberValue(BigDecimal.class);
    BigDecimal tenPercent = baseAmount.multiply(new BigDecimal("0.1"));
    return Money.of(tenPercent, amount.getCurrency());
};

MonetaryAmount dollars = Money.of(12.34567, "USD");

// apply tenPercentOperator to MonetaryAmount
MonetaryAmount tenPercentDollars = dollars.with(tenPercentOperator); // USD 1.234567

这不是精确与否的问题，也不是精确与否的问题。这是一个满足以10为底而不是以2为底计算的人的期望的问题。例如，在财务计算中使用双精度值不会产生数学意义上的“错误”答案，但它可以产生财务意义上不期望的答案。

即使您在输出前的最后一分钟舍入结果，您仍然可以偶尔使用与期望不匹配的双精度结果。

Using a calculator, or calculating results by hand, 1.40 * 165 = 231 exactly. However, internally using doubles, on my compiler / operating system environment, it is stored as a binary number close to 230.99999... so if you truncate the number, you get 230 instead of 231. You may reason that rounding instead of truncating would have given the desired result of 231. That is true, but rounding always involves truncation. Whatever rounding technique you use, there are still boundary conditions like this one that will round down when you expect it to round up. They are rare enough that they often will not be found through casual testing or observation. You may have to write some code to search for examples that illustrate outcomes that do not behave as expected.

Assume you want to round something to the nearest penny. So you take your final result, multiply by 100, add 0.5, truncate, then divide the result by 100 to get back to pennies. If the internal number you stored was 3.46499999.... instead of 3.465, you are going to get 3.46 instead 3.47 when you round the number to the nearest penny. But your base 10 calculations may have indicated that the answer should be 3.465 exactly, which clearly should round up to 3.47, not down to 3.46. These kinds of things happen occasionally in real life when you use doubles for financial calculations. It is rare, so it often goes unnoticed as an issue, but it happens.

如果您使用以10为基数进行内部计算，而不是使用双数，则如果您的代码中没有其他错误，那么结果总是完全符合人类的预期。

Float is binary form of Decimal with different design; they are two different things. There are little errors between two types when converted to each other. Also, float is designed to represent infinite large number of values for scientific. That means it is designed to lost precision to extreme small and extreme large number with that fixed number of bytes. Decimal can't represent infinite number of values, it bounds to just that number of decimal digits. So Float and Decimal are for different purpose.

有一些方法可以管理货币值的错误:

使用长整数，以分计算。 使用双精度，保持你的有效数字为15，这样小数可以精确模拟。在显示值之前舍入;做计算时经常四舍五入。 使用像Java BigDecimal这样的十进制库，这样就不需要使用double来模拟十进制。

附注:有趣的是，大多数品牌的手持科学计算器工作在十进制而不是浮点数。所以没有人抱怨浮点数转换错误。

The result of floating point number is not exact, which makes them unsuitable for any financial calculation which requires exact result and not approximation. float and double are designed for engineering and scientific calculation and many times doesn’t produce exact result also result of floating point calculation may vary from JVM to JVM. Look at below example of BigDecimal and double primitive which is used to represent money value, its quite clear that floating point calculation may not be exact and one should use BigDecimal for financial calculations.

    // floating point calculation
    final double amount1 = 2.0;
    final double amount2 = 1.1;
    System.out.println("difference between 2.0 and 1.1 using double is: " + (amount1 - amount2));

    // Use BigDecimal for financial calculation
    final BigDecimal amount3 = new BigDecimal("2.0");
    final BigDecimal amount4 = new BigDecimal("1.1");
    System.out.println("difference between 2.0 and 1.1 using BigDecimal is: " + (amount3.subtract(amount4)));

输出:

difference between 2.0 and 1.1 using double is: 0.8999999999999999
difference between 2.0 and 1.1 using BigDecimal is: 0.9

浮点数和双精度数是近似的。如果你创建了一个BigDecimal并将一个float传递给构造函数，你会看到float实际等于什么:

groovy:000> new BigDecimal(1.0F)
===> 1
groovy:000> new BigDecimal(1.01F)
===> 1.0099999904632568359375

这可能不是您想要的表示1.01美元的方式。

问题是IEEE规范没有一种方法来精确地表示所有的分数，其中一些分数最终是重复的分数，所以你最终会得到近似错误。由于会计人员喜欢精确到每一分钱，如果客户支付账单，在付款处理后他们欠0.01，他们会被收取费用或无法关闭他们的帐户，那么最好使用精确的类型，如decimal(在c#中)或Java. math. bigdecimal。

这并不是说如果你四舍五入，误差就无法控制:请参阅Peter Lawrey的这篇文章。只是从一开始就不用四舍五入更容易。大多数处理资金的应用程序不需要大量的数学运算，操作包括添加东西或将金额分配到不同的存储空间。引入浮点数和舍入只会使事情复杂化。
