Java: changing the value of the float object

I have looked inside the Javadoc of float, but it seems that there is no way to modify the value after construction?

Float f = new Float(1.23f);
[...]
f.setValue(3.14f); // Nothing like this seems to exist...
f = 3.14f; // "f" Now points to a new object,not what I want...

Is there any way to change the value of the object? Or, is there another wrapper class available that allows this?

Solution

You cannot change the value of float; All original wrapper classes are immutable If you want to add this feature, you can create your own (mutable) wrapper class, or view mutablefloat. Com from Apache Commons
