Interface RealProvider

All Superinterfaces:

AlgorithmProvider

All Known Implementing Classes:

CoreRealProvider, NativeRealProvider

public interface RealProvider
extends AlgorithmProvider

Service Provider Interface for high-precision Real number implementations.

This allows the core module to use native implementations (like MPFR via NativeRealBig) when available, while falling back to the default RealBig (BigDecimalMath) otherwise.

2.0

Method Details

create

Real create(BigDecimal value)

Creates a Real instance from a BigDecimal.

of

Real of(String value)

Creates a Real instance from a String.

getConstant

default Real getConstant(String name)

Returns a mathematical constant by name (e.g., "pi", "e"). Implementations should return a Real with at least the requested precision.

getAlgorithmType

default String getAlgorithmType()

Description copied from interface: AlgorithmProvider

Returns the unique category of the algorithm.
