Store large decimal number in android

Question

In Android, I going to store 8 digits in Sqlite but when i retrieved values from edittext to Float/Double then value was displaying with specific number format ie. "E" or some time add "." in values.

Edit text value is : 99989888 Result is : 9.998989

How i can resolve this issue? I can't use BigDecimal because it's not supported by Sqlite and > operator.

What do you mean with "displaying"? Isn't the edit box is the *only* place where it's displayed? — CL., Dec 12 '16 at 13:56

You can try using long instead

You can use TEXT representation of BigDecimal and convert it in/out when you need it. Another aproach is here
