Error Converting "1,300" to Float using Float.parseFloat()

I need to convert a string in the format xx,xxx.00 to a float value.
But I get java.lang.NumberFormatException by using Float.parseFloat("xx,xxx.00")
What can I do?

Look at java.text.NumberFormat to parse numbers in a specific format.

Owen

    I am getting the following errow when I try converting web page to PDF using Acrobat 8 on IE 9 on Vista.  This worked previously but it appears that a recent update to Acrobat caused issues with this functionality.  This happened once before and after some troubleshooting the technician wasable to get the functionality working again.  The Adobe printer shows up with "Error" however I can still create PDFs from outlook.

  • Arithmetic Overflow error converting float to data type numeric

    Hi,
    Am facing strange issue,I have function which returns money datatype and assigning the return money value to float datatype in table.
    Error msg:
    Msg 8115, Level 16, State 6, Procedure GBCalcCatalogPriceNewV2, Line 204
    Arithmetic overflow error converting float to data type numeric.
    The statement has been terminated.
    Strange thing is the same stored procedure is working fine in production environment,but in the deveopment i see this error.Am scared if the same happens in the production environment.Please advice and advance
    thanks
    Regards
    RAj

    Strange thing is the same stored procedure is working fine in production environment,
    How could that be strange? This is an error that occurs depending on the data. Accidents that are waiting to happen will happen sooner or later.
    Then again, a development database may be more prone to such errors, because data that entered are completely out of whack with real life data. Still it is a warning sign. If you have some place where you convert data from float to numeric, you must consider
    the risk that the float value is outside the range for the numeric data type. How do you prevent that from happening? Maybe a CHECK constraint on the column? Of if the data origins from a money column, use a numeric data type with sufficient precision.

  • I'm getting no error using float in cldc1.0 with wtk2.2?

    I'm getting no error using float in cldc1.0 with wtk2.2?

    Press Create Package, Jar and Jad files are getting generated successfully.
    If Cldc1.0 doesn't support float, I must get Compile error, isn't??That's ok, but just because you're not doing anything with those variables so the compiler ignores them.
    This should give you a preverify error:

  • Converting Vector with Floats to float[] typecast error?

    Java Developers,
    I am able to convert my String vector to a
    String[] but just can't get the Vector with Floats to be converted to a float[] array. I have looked into google and java.sun.com Forums but still cant seem to find the answer. I would really appreciate your help!
    This is how I am making the conversion from Vector(String) to String[]:
    legendLabelsArray = new String[columnHeads.size()];
    int k=0;
    Iterator e = columnHeads.iterator();
    while(e.hasNext()){
    System.out.println("inside the enumerator");
    legendLabelsArray[k] = e.next().toString();
    System.out.println("Array elements at " + k + " are " + legendLabelsArray[k]);
    System.out.println(k++);
    How can I make something similar to work with a Vector with Floats to float[] instead of Strings?
    Thanks,
    Musaddiq
    [email protected]

    Something like this ...
    float[] floatArray = new float[vectorOfFloats.size()];
    int k=0;
    Iterator e = vectorOfFloats.iterator();
    while(e.hasNext()){
    floatArray[k] = ((Float) e.next()).floatValue();
    k++;

  • Using Floating Point

    I write mobile java program using float point operations
    but i instal to the mobile as a jar file
    the mobile refuse that and give a message: "No supported floating point"
    so what the solution for this problem

    Recently I have to do a project where the main task is to port a J2SE application to J2ME. The J2SE application was full of floating point operation and as per my knowledge J2ME does not support floationg point operation due to low memory availability. So I have converted all the floating point operations to fixed point. I found no other way to execute floating point operations :-(

  • Cannot explicit convert double.MaxValue/double.MinValue/float.MaxValue/float.MinValue to decimal

    but variable and constant's explicit conversion is OK.
    can anyone tell me why?

    yes, your right!
    I has been tried
    If I assign it(MinValue/MaxValue) to a variable first and then explicit convert to a decimal
    it will be pass compile, but it will throw exception when runtime

    Please follow basic Netiquette and post the DDL we need to answer this. Follow industry and ANSI/ISO standards in your data. You should follow ISO-11179 rules for naming data elements. You should follow ISO-8601 rules for displaying temporal data. We need
    to know the data types, keys and constraints on the table. Avoid dialect in favor of ANSI/ISO Standard SQL. And you need to read and download the PDF for:

    >> I need to select from a dynamic column name and save the result in a variable, but seem to be having trouble with the values being fed to sp_executesql <<
    This is so very, very wrong! A column is an attribute of an entity. The idea that you are so screwed up that you have no idea if you want
    the shoe size, the phone number or something else at run time of this entity. 
    In Software Engineering we have a principle called cohesion that says a model should do one and only one task, have one and only one entry point, and one and only one exit point. 
    Hey, on a scale from 1 to 10, what color is your favorite letter of the alphabet? Yes, your mindset is that level of sillyity and absurdity. 
    Do you know that SQL is a declarative language? This family of languages does not use local variables! 
    Now think about “month_val” and what it means. A month is a temporal unit of measurement, so this is as silly as saying “liter_val” in your code. Why did you use “sp_” on a procedure? It has special meaning in T-SQL.  
    Think about how silly this is: 
     SET @month_val = 'Month' + CAST(@month_nbr AS VARCHAR(2));
    We do not do display formatting in a query. This is a violation of at the tiered architecture principle. We have a presentation layer. But more than that, the INTERVAL temporal data type is a {year-month} and never just a month. This is fundamental. 
    We need to see the DDL so we can re-write this mess. Want to fix it or not?

  • Convert float to Float lost precision?

    Hi all,
    float r = 3.456789012f;
    Float R = new Float(r);
    System.out.println (R.toString());
    float y = R.floatValue();
    System.out.println(y);
    gives 3.4567890 in both cases.
    Is the precision being truncated when changing from float to Float?
    any help please to ensure all precision can be maintained?
    thanks
    andrew

    Is the precision being truncated when changing from
    float to Float?
    Nope. Try System.out.println(r).
    any help please to ensure all precision can be
    maintained?
    Nope. The float data type can't handle that much precision. You can use double to get a bit better precision, and the java.math.BigDecimal class to get arbitrary precision.

    Please give me the solution.

    This problem has resolved. I added one line: "CHARSET_CONVERTER_CLASS=com.sybase.jdbc2.utils.PureConverter" into weblogic datasource.
    In Internet I got lot's of article but it was worst. There were giving solution on Weblogic 4 or some old version. Generally on internet you will get article:
    http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v4r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.support.was40.doc/html/DB_Connections_Connection_Pooling/swg21066787.html
    This article is giving information about weblogic 4.
    But We need to solve the issue into weblogic into 8. So in datasource set property: CHARSET_CONVERTER_CLASS=com.sybase.jdbc2.utils.PureConverter. Do not set property: CHARSET_CONVERTER_CLASS=com.sybase.jdbc2.utils.TruncationConverter

  • Floats using BigDecimal

    I am trying to float my answer using BigDecimal, anyone have any suggestions? PLease Help.
    import java.lang.reflect.*;

    import java.math.*;
    class myMean

              System.out.println("Please enter the amount of decial places to use:");
              strdecimal = in.readLine();
              x = Integer.parseInt(strdecimal);
              for (float counter=0; counter < size; counter++)     
                   // input on the test scores come here          
                   System.out.print("What is the score of the " + (counter+1) + " test: ");
                   strgrade = in.readLine();
                   score = Float.parseFloat(strgrade);

              callAverageMethod = out.myMean(tracker);

    bd = bd.setScale(x, BigDecimal.ROUND_UP);
              System.out.println(" The average score of the " + size + " tests is: " + bd/size);
    }

    Try doing the computation ( sum / num grades ) within the BigDecimal. If you create the BigDecimal and then do the integer division, you'll create a new double that isn't subject to the rounding.
    public class bdtest {
        public bdtest() {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            float f = 100.0f;
            int n = 6;
            BigDecimal bd = new BigDecimal( f / n );
            bd = bd.setScale( 2, BigDecimal.ROUND_UP );
            System.out.println( bd );
    }

  • Why use floats in graphics methods?

    Since coordinates are specified in pixels, why do
    methods like Line2D.Float() take floating point numbers
    instead of integers? Dont floats take more time
    and memory?

    As far as I know, float calculations indeed require more processing power as apposed to integer ones. I'm not quite sure why floats and doubles are used in a number of graphics related methods either, because it's not quite likely you'll ever have a screen dimension of 1024.78 by 768.54 for instance (yet, class java.awt.Dimension returns width and height of screensize as doubles!).
    I think a float, like int, consumes 32 bits -thus 4 bytes- of memory space. So as far as memory goes, there's no difference.
    Could someone else enlighten us regarding the use of float and double precision variables where it -at first glance- doesn't seem to make sense?
