All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<ScaledDecimal>
```
public class ScaledDecimal
extends Object
implements Comparable<ScaledDecimal>, Serializable
```
Represents a scaled decimal number, characterized by a mantissa and an exponent. This class provides methods to manipulate and convert the representation of scaled decimals. It supports initialization from various sources such as strings, BigDecimal, and byte arrays. Additionally, it offers normalization and conversion utilities.
The scalable range of the exponent is constrained to [-63, 63], and violations of these bounds will throw exceptions where applicable.

```
    Sets the value of this ScaledDecimal using a byte array representation.
    The method takes a byte array, a starting offset, and a length and parses the byte array to extract the mantissa and exponent for the ScaledDecimal. The byte array must represent a valid numeric value in string form, and it should not exceed the range of allowed values for mantissa.

    buffer - the byte array containing the numeric representation
    
    offset - the offset within the byte array to start parsing

    NullPointerException - if buffer is null
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if offset < 0, length < 1, or offset + length > buffer.length
    
    NumberFormatException - if there are invalid characters in the byte array or if the numeric value is not properly formatted
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if the parsed value exceeds the range of allowed values

    Converts the current ScaledDecimal instance to a BigDecimal.
    
    Returns:
    
    a BigDecimal representation of the current ScaledDecimal, constructed using the mantissa and exponent values.
  - toByteArray
```
public final int toByteArray(byte[] buffer,
                             int offset)
```
    Encodes the current ScaledDecimal instance into a byte array representation and stores it in the provided buffer. The method writes the numeric value (including sign, mantissa, and decimal point, if applicable) starting at the specified offset in the buffer.
    
    Parameters:
    
    buffer - the target byte array where the scaled decimal representation will be written
    
    offset - the starting offset in the byte array for writing the scaled decimal
    
    Returns:
    
    the number of bytes written into the buffer representing the scaled decimal
    
    Throws:
    
    NullPointerException - if buffer is null
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if offset < 0 or offset >= buffer.length
    
    IndexOutOfBoundsException - if writing, the scaled decimal exceeds the bounds of the buffer
  - normalize
```
public final void normalize()
```
    Normalizes the mantissa and adjusts the exponent accordingly.
    This method reduces the mantissa by removing trailing zeroes while incrementing the exponent by the same amount. The normalization process is only carried out if the mantissa is nonzero.
  - normalize
```
public final void normalize(int newExponent)
```
    Normalizes the scaled decimal's mantissa to adjust the representation to a specified target exponent. This method modifies the mantissa and/or exponent by appropriately scaling the mantissa value to match the new exponent without losing precision.
    If the adjustment to the new exponent cannot be performed without data loss (i.e., mantissa would need rounding), an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.
    
    Parameters:
    
    newExponent - the target exponent to which the scaled decimal should be normalized
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if the required adjustment to the mantissa for conversion to the specified exponent leads to data loss
  - toString
