Interface Summary

Interface	Description
DecimalAppender	This interface represents a handler for decimal numbers, and defines how they should be appended in various forms.
Decimaliser	Provides functionality for converting floating-point values (double and float) into a decimal representation that can be appended to a target.

Class Summary

Class	Description
GeneralDecimaliser	A versatile implementation of Decimaliser which employs a hybrid approach to convert floating-point numbers to decimal representation.
MaximumPrecision	Implementation of Decimaliser that converts floating-point numbers to decimal representation with a specified maximum number of decimal places.
SimpleDecimaliser	A light-weight implementation of Decimaliser, which employs a simple rounding technique for converting floating-point numbers to decimal representation.
StandardDecimaliser	Implementation of Decimaliser that converts floating-point numbers to their decimal representation in standard form.
UsesBigDecimal	An implementation of Decimaliser that uses BigDecimal for higher-precision conversions of floating-point numbers to decimal representation.

Package net.openhft.chronicle.bytes.render Description

Provides classes and interfaces for rendering byte sequences into decimal representation with various levels of precision and formatting. This package is part of the Chronicle Bytes library and offers a selection of Decimaliser implementations that control the conversion of floating-point numbers to their decimal representations.

Classes in this package include:

• StandardDecimaliser - An implementation that produces numbers in standard form, ensuring that large numbers are represented in full, while small values are rounded to 18 decimal places.
• SimpleDecimaliser - A light-weight implementation that employs simple rounding techniques. This implementation is optimized for performance and simplicity, making it useful in scenarios where performance is a higher priority than precision.
• GeneralDecimaliser - A general implementation that initially attempts conversion using a light-weight strategy and falls back to the BigDecimal-based strategy if necessary.
• UsesBigDecimal - A BigDecimal-based implementation that is used for higher precision conversions. This is useful in scenarios where precision is a higher priority than performance.
• MaximumPrecision - An implementation that maintains a maximum precision during conversion, ensuring that numbers are converted using only that precision.

These classes are used to convert floating-point numbers into a string representation that is optimized for either performance or precision, depending on the use case requirements.
