# Money.from

`The Money class allows you to create a Money instance from a variety of other types:`

* Money.fromFixed
* Money.fromInt
* Money.fromBigInt
* Money.fromNum
* Money.fromDecimal

Each of the variants have a `withCurrency` alternate form:

* Money.fromFixedWithCurrency
* Money.fromIntWithCurrency
* Money.fromBigIntWithCurrency
* Money.fromNumWithCurrency
* Money.fromDecimalWithCurrency

The recommended method is  to used ``Money.fromFixed or the `withCurrency` alternative. Using `fromFixed` then allows you to store and transmit your Money amounts without loss of precision.``

`Money` can be instantiated by providing the amount in the minor units of the currency (e.g. cents):

```dart
 test('parse with Currency', () {
        // create one (1) australian dollar
        Money.fromFixed(Fixed.fromInt(100), isoCode: 'AUD');

        Money.parse(r'$1.00', isoCode: 'AUD');

        Money.fromFixedWithCurrency(Fixed.fromInt(100), CommonCurrencies().aud);

        Money.parseWithCurrency(r'$1.00', CommonCurrencies().aud);

        /// Create a money value of $5.10 usd from an int
        Money.fromInt(510, isoCode: 'USD');

        /// Create a money value of ¥25010 from a big int.
        Money.fromBigInt(BigInt.from(25010), isoCode: 'JPY');
      });
```
