⚡What is Big Decimal in Java?

A BigDecimal consists of an arbitrary precision integer unscaled value and a 32-bit integer scale. If zero or positive, the scale is the number of digits to the right of the decimal point. If negative, the unscaled value of the number is multiplied by ten to the power of the negation of the scale.

The BigDecimal class was used for support operations on double numbers for arithmetic, scale handling, rounding, comparison, format conversion and hashing.
