##
Class Method Detail

def self.si_prefix(magnitude : Int, prefixes = SI_PREFIXES) : Char | Nil #

##
Macro Detail

macro [](*nums) #

Creates an `Array` of `self` with the given values, which will be casted to this type with the `new` method (defined in each `Number` type).

    floats = Float64[1, 2, 3, 4]
    floats.class # => Array(Float64)

    ints = Int64[1, 2, 3]
    ints.class # => Array(Int64)

This is similar to an array literal of the same item type:

    Int64[1, 2, 3, 4]     # : Array(Int64)
    [1, 2, 3, 4] of Int64 # : Array(Int64)

macro slice(*nums, read_only = false) #

Creates a `Slice` of `self` with the given values, which will be casted to this type with the `new` method (defined in each `Number` type).

The slice is allocated on the heap.

    floats = Float64.slice(1, 2, 3, 4)
    floats.class # => Slice(Float64)

    ints = Int64.slice(1, 2, 3)
    ints.class # => Slice(Int64)

This is a convenient alternative to `Slice.[]` for designating a specific item type which also considers autocasting.

    Int64.slice(1, 2, 3, 4)           # : Slice(Int64)
    Slice[1_i64, 2_i64, 3_i64, 4_i64] # : Slice(Int64)

macro static_array(*nums) #

Creates a `StaticArray` of `self` with the given values, which will be casted to this type with the `new` method (defined in each `Number` type).

    floats = Float64.static_array(1, 2, 3, 4)
    floats.class # => StaticArray(Float64, 4)

    ints = Int64.static_array(1, 2, 3)
    ints.class # => StaticArray(Int64, 3)

This is a convenvenient alternative to `StaticArray.[]` for designating a specific item type which also considers autocasting.

    Int64.static_array(1, 2, 3, 4)          # : StaticArray(Int64)
    StaticArray[1_i64, 2_i64, 3_i64, 4_i64] # : StaticArray(Int64)

Divides `self` by other using floored division.

The result will be of the same type as `self`.

def <=>(other) : Int32 | Nil #

The comparison operator.

Returns:

- `-1` if `self` is less than other
- `0` if `self` is equal to other
- `1` if `self` is greater than other
- `nil` if `self` is `NaN` or other is `NaN`, because `NaN` values are not comparable

def ==(other : Complex) #

Returns the absolute value of this number.

    123.abs  # => 123
    -123.abs # => 123

def abs2 #

Returns the square of `self` (`self * self`).

    4.abs2   # => 16

Returns a `Complex` object with real part `Math.cos(self)` and imaginary part `Math.sin(self)`, where `self` represents the angle in radians.

def divmod(number) #

Returns a `Tuple` of two elements containing the quotient and modulus obtained by dividing `self` by number.

    11.divmod(3)  # => {3, 2}

def format(io : IO, separator = '.', delimiter = ',', decimal_places : Int | Nil = nil, *, group : Int = 3, only_significant : Bool = false) : Nil #

Prints this number as a `String` using a customizable format.

separator is used as decimal separator, delimiter as thousands delimiter between batches of group digits.

If decimal_places is `nil`, all significant decimal places are printed (similar to `#to_s`). If the argument has a numeric value, the number of visible decimal places will be fixed to that amount.

Trailing zeros are omitted if only_significant is `true`.

    123_456.789.format                                            # => "123,456.789"

def humanize(io : IO, precision = 3, separator = '.', delimiter = ',', *, base = 10 ** 3, significant = true, prefixes : Indexable = SI_PREFIXES) : Nil #

Pretty prints this number as a `String` in a human-readable format.

This is particularly useful if a number can have a wide value range and the exact value is less relevant.

It rounds the number to the nearest thousands magnitude with precision number of significant digits. The order of magnitude is expressed with an appended quantifier. By default, SI prefixes are used (see `SI_PREFIXES`).

    1_200_000_000.humanize # => "1.2G"
    0.000_000_012.humanize # => "12.0n"

If significant is `false`, the number of precision digits is preserved after the decimal separator.

def i : Complex #

Returns a `Complex` object with the value of `self` as the imaginary part.

def integer? : Bool #

Returns `true` if `self` is an integer.

Non-integer types may return `true` as long as `self` denotes a finite value without any fractional parts.

    1.integer?       # => true
    1.0.integer?     # => true
    1.2.integer?     # => false
    (1 / 0).integer? # => false
    (0 / 0).integer? # => false

def negative? : Bool #

Returns `true` if `self` is less than zero.

    -1.negative? # => true
    0.negative?  # => false
    1.negative?  # => false

def positive? : Bool #

Returns `true` if `self` is greater than zero.

    -1.positive? # => false
    0.positive?  # => false
    1.positive?  # => true

def round(mode : RoundingMode = :ties_even) : self #

Rounds `self` to an integer value using rounding mode.

The rounding mode controls the direction of the rounding. The default is `RoundingMode::TIES_EVEN` which rounds to the nearest integer, with ties (fractional value of `0.5`) being rounded to the even neighbor (Banker's rounding).

def round(digits : Number, base = 10, *, mode : RoundingMode = :ties_even) #

Rounds this number to a given precision.

Rounds to the specified number of digits after the decimal place, (or before if negative), in base base.

The rounding mode controls the direction of the rounding. The default is `RoundingMode::TIES_EVEN` which rounds to the nearest integer, with ties (fractional value of `0.5`) being rounded to the even neighbor (Banker's rounding).

    -1763.116.round(2) # => -1763.12

def sign : Int32 #

Returns the sign of this number as an `Int32`.

- `-1` if this number is negative
- `0` if this number is zero
- `1` if this number is positive

    123.sign # => 1
    0.sign   # => 0
    -42.sign # => -1

def significant(digits, base = 10) #

Keeps digits significant digits of this number in the given base.

    1234.567.significant(1) # => 1000
    1234.567.significant(2) # => 1200
    1234.567.significant(3) # => 1230
    1234.567.significant(4) # => 1235
    1234.567.significant(5) # => 1234.6
    1234.567.significant(6) # => 1234.57
    1234.567.significant(7) # => 1234.567
    1234.567.significant(8) # => 1234.567

    15.159.significant(1, base = 2) # => 16

def step(*, to limit = nil, exclusive : Bool = false, &) : Nil #

Performs a `#step` in the direction of the limit. For instance:

    10.step(to: 5).to_a # => [10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5]
    5.step(to: 10).to_a # => [5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

def step(*, to limit = nil, exclusive : Bool = false) #

Performs a `#step` in the direction of the limit. For instance:

    10.step(to: 5).to_a # => [10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5]
    5.step(to: 10).to_a # => [5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

def to_big_f : BigFloat #
def to_c : Complex #

Returns a `Complex` object with the value of `self` as the real part.

def to_yaml(yaml : YAML::Nodes::Builder) : Nil #
def zero? : Bool #

Returns `true` if `self` is equal to zero.

    0.zero? # => true
    5.zero? # => false
