Method Detail

compareUnscaled

public static final int compareUnscaled(long unscaled,
                                        int scale,
                                        long otherUnscaled,
                                        int otherScale)

Compares the two unscaled values with possibly different scales.

Parameters:

unscaled - the first unscaled value to compare

scale - the scale of the first value

otherUnscaled - the second unscaled value to compare

otherScale - the scale of the second value

Returns:

the value 0 if unscaled1 == unscaled2; a value less than 0 if unscaled1 < unscaled2; and a value greater than 0 if unscaled1 > unscaled2
