Uses of Class java.math.BigDecimal (Java Platform SE 7 )

Packages that use BigDecimal
Package	Description
java.math	Provides classes for performing arbitrary-precision integer arithmetic (`BigInteger`) and arbitrary-precision decimal arithmetic (`BigDecimal`).
java.sql	Provides the API for accessing and processing data stored in a data source (usually a relational database) using the Java^TM programming language.
java.util	Contains the collections framework, legacy collection classes, event model, date and time facilities, internationalization, and miscellaneous utility classes (a string tokenizer, a random-number generator, and a bit array).
javax.management.openmbean	Provides the open data types and Open MBean descriptor classes.
javax.sql	Provides the API for server side data source access and processing from the Java^TM programming language.
javax.sql.rowset	Standard interfaces and base classes for JDBC `RowSet` implementations.
