An immutable JSON number value.

 Implementations may use a BigDecimal object to store the numeric value internally. The BigDecimal object can be constructed from the following types: int BigDecimal(int), long BigDecimal(long), BigInteger BigDecimal(BigInteger), double BigDecimal.valueOf(double), and String BigDecimal(String). Some of the method semantics in this class are defined using the BigDecimal semantics.

Returns true if this JSON number is a integral number. This method semantics are defined using bigDecimalValue().scale(). If the scale is zero, then it is considered integral type. This integral type information can be used to invoke an appropriate accessor method to obtain a numeric value as in the following example: 

JsonNumber num = ...
if (num.isIntegral()) {
    num.longValue();     // or other methods to get integral value
} else {
    num.doubleValue();   // or other methods to get decimal number value
}




Returns:true if this number is a integral number, otherwise false
