Package ch.randelshofer.fastdoubleparser

Class FastDoubleParser

  • public class FastDoubleParser
extends java.lang.Object
    This is a C++ to Java port of Daniel Lemire's fast_double_parser.

    The code has been changed, so that it parses the same syntax as Double.parseDouble(String).

        public static double parseDouble​(java.lang.CharSequence str)
                          throws java.lang.NumberFormatException
        Returns a Double object holding the double value represented by the argument string str.

        This method can be used as a drop in for method Double.valueOf(String). (Assuming that the API of this method has not changed since Java SE 16).

        Leading and trailing whitespace characters in str are ignored. Whitespace is removed as if by the String.trim() method; that is, characters in the range [U+0000,U+0020].

        The rest of str should constitute a FloatValue as described by the lexical syntax rules shown below:

        FloatValue:
        [Sign] NaN
        [Sign] Infinity

        Parameters:
        str - the string to be parsed
        Returns:
        the parsed double value
        Throws:
        java.lang.NumberFormatException - if the string can not be parsed
