Represents a range of Number objects.

This class uses double comparisons. This means that it is unsuitable for dealing with large Long, BigDecimal or BigInteger numbers.

Constructs a new NumberRange using number as both the minimum and maximum in this range.

Params:
  • num – the number to use for this range
Throws:
/** * <p>Constructs a new <code>NumberRange</code> using * <code>number</code> as both the minimum and maximum in * this range.</p> * * @param num the number to use for this range * @throws NullPointerException if the number is <code>null</code> */
public NumberRange(Number num) { if (num == null) { throw new NullPointerException("The number must not be null"); } this.min = num; this.max = num; }

Constructs a new NumberRange with the specified minimum and maximum numbers.

If the maximum is less than the minimum, the range will be constructed from the minimum value to the minimum value, not what you would expect!.

Params:
  • min – the minimum number in this range
  • max – the maximum number in this range
Throws:
/** * <p>Constructs a new <code>NumberRange</code> with the specified * minimum and maximum numbers.</p> * * <p><em>If the maximum is less than the minimum, the range will be constructed * from the minimum value to the minimum value, not what you would expect!.</em></p> * * @param min the minimum number in this range * @param max the maximum number in this range * @throws NullPointerException if either the minimum or maximum number is * <code>null</code> */

Returns the minimum number in this range.

Returns:the minimum number in this range

Returns the maximum number in this range.

Returns:the maximum number in this range
/** * <p>Returns the maximum number in this range.</p> * * @return the maximum number in this range */

Tests whether the specified number occurs within this range using double comparison.

Params:
  • number – the number to test
Returns:true if the specified number occurs within this range; otherwise, false
/** * <p>Tests whether the specified <code>number</code> occurs within * this range using <code>double</code> comparison.</p> * * @param number the number to test * @return <code>true</code> if the specified number occurs within this * range; otherwise, <code>false</code> */

Tests whether the specified range occurs entirely within this range using double comparison.

Params:
  • range – the range to test
Returns:true if the specified range occurs entirely within this range; otherwise, false
/** * <p>Tests whether the specified range occurs entirely within this * range using <code>double</code> comparison.</p> * * @param range the range to test * @return <code>true</code> if the specified range occurs entirely within * this range; otherwise, <code>false</code> */
public boolean includesRange(NumberRange range) { if (range == null) { return false; } else { return includesNumber(range.min) && includesNumber(range.max); } }

Tests whether the specified range overlaps with this range using double comparison.

Params:
  • range – the range to test
Returns:true if the specified range overlaps with this range; otherwise, false
/** * <p>Tests whether the specified range overlaps with this range * using <code>double</code> comparison.</p> * * @param range the range to test * @return <code>true</code> if the specified range overlaps with this * range; otherwise, <code>false</code> */

Indicates whether some other Object is "equal" to this one.

Params:
  • obj – the reference object with which to compare
Returns:true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise
/** * <p>Indicates whether some other <code>Object</code> is * &quot;equal&quot; to this one.</p> * * @param obj the reference object with which to compare * @return <code>true</code> if this object is the same as the obj * argument; <code>false</code> otherwise */

Returns a hash code value for this object.

Returns:a hash code value for this object
/** * <p>Returns a hash code value for this object.</p> * * @return a hash code value for this object */
public int hashCode() { int result = 17; result = 37 * result + min.hashCode(); result = 37 * result + max.hashCode(); return result; }

Returns the string representation of this range.

This string is the string representation of the minimum and maximum numbers in the range, separated by a hyphen. If a number is negative, then it is enclosed in parentheses.

Returns:the string representation of this range
