operators

[Guest]

I have a class Digit and I want to implement operators + - * / with 2
Digits, a Digit and an Integer, a Digit and an int, a Digit and a Double
etc.

Is this possible?

Nope, there is no user-defined operator overloading in Java.

Nope, there is no user-defined operator overloading in Java.

This is also why these operators are not implemented for the classes
java.math.BigInteger and java.math.BigDecimal.

You can however, use the same solution as used for those classes: create
methods for it.
