public BigDecimal movePointRight( int n )

Description

Moves the decimal point the specified number of places to the right. If this number's scale is >= n, the call merely subtracts n from the scale; otherwise, it sets the scale to zero, and multiplies the integer value by 10 ** (n - this.scale). If n is negative, the call is equivalent to movePointLeft(-n). (The BigDecimal returned by this call has value (this * 10**n) and scale MAX(this.scale()-n, 0).)
