/**
* <code>DecimalFormat</code> is a concrete subclass of
* {@link NumberFormat} that formats decimal numbers.
*
* <p>To obtain a {@link NumberFormat} for a specific locale (including the
* default locale) call one of <code>NumberFormat</code>'s factory methods such
* as {@link NumberFormat#getInstance}. Do not call the <code>DecimalFormat</code>
* constructors directly, unless you know what you are doing, since the
* {@link NumberFormat} factory methods may return subclasses other than
* <code>DecimalFormat</code>. If you need to customize the format object, do
* something like this:
*
* <blockquote><pre>
* NumberFormat f = NumberFormat.getInstance(loc);
* if (f instanceof DecimalFormat) {
* ((DecimalFormat) f).setDecimalSeparatorAlwaysShown(true);
* }</pre></blockquote>
*
* <p><strong>Example Usage</strong>
*
* <blockquote><pre>
* <strong>// Print out a number using the localized number, currency,
* // and percent format for each locale</strong>
* Locale[] locales = NumberFormat.getAvailableLocales();
* double myNumber = -1234.56;
* NumberFormat format;
* for (int j=0; j<3; ++j) {
* System.out.println("FORMAT");
* for (int i = 0; i < locales.length; ++i) {
* if (locales[i].getCountry().length() == 0) {
* // Skip language-only locales
* continue;
* }
* System.out.print(locales[i].getDisplayName());
* switch (j) {
* case 0:
* format = NumberFormat.getInstance(locales[i]); break;
* case 1:
* format = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(locales[i]); break;
* default:
* format = NumberFormat.getPercentInstance(locales[i]); break;
* }
* try {
* // Assume format is a DecimalFormat
* System.out.print(": " + ((DecimalFormat) format).toPattern()
* + " -> " + form.format(myNumber));
* } catch (Exception e) {}
* try {
* System.out.println(" -> " + format.parse(form.format(myNumber)));
* } catch (ParseException e) {}
* }
* }</pre></blockquote>
*
* <h4>Patterns</h4>
*
* <p>A <code>DecimalFormat</code> consists of a <em>pattern</em> and a set of
* <em>symbols</em>. The pattern may be set directly using
* {@link #applyPattern}, or indirectly using other API methods which
* manipulate aspects of the pattern, such as the minimum number of integer
* digits. The symbols are stored in a {@link DecimalFormatSymbols}
* object. When using the {@link NumberFormat} factory methods, the
* pattern and symbols are read from ICU's locale data.
*
* <h4>Special Pattern Characters</h4>
*
* <p>Many characters in a pattern are taken literally; they are matched during
* parsing and output unchanged during formatting. Special characters, on the
* other hand, stand for other characters, strings, or classes of characters.
* For example, the '#' character is replaced by a localized digit. Often the
* replacement character is the same as the pattern character; in the U.S. locale,
* the ',' grouping character is replaced by ','. However, the replacement is
* still happening, and if the symbols are modified, the grouping character
* changes. Some special characters affect the behavior of the formatter by
* their presence; for example, if the percent character is seen, then the
* value is multiplied by 100 before being displayed.
*
* <p>To insert a special character in a pattern as a literal, that is, without
* any special meaning, the character must be quoted. There are some exceptions to
* this which are noted below.
*
* <p>The characters listed here are used in non-localized patterns. Localized
* patterns use the corresponding characters taken from this formatter's
* {@link DecimalFormatSymbols} object instead, and these characters lose
* their special status. Two exceptions are the currency sign and quote, which
* are not localized.

* </blockquote>
*
* <p>A <code>DecimalFormat</code> pattern contains a postive and negative
* subpattern, for example, "#,##0.00;(#,##0.00)". Each subpattern has a
* prefix, a numeric part, and a suffix. If there is no explicit negative
* subpattern, the negative subpattern is the localized minus sign prefixed to the
* positive subpattern. That is, "0.00" alone is equivalent to "0.00;-0.00". If there
* is an explicit negative subpattern, it serves only to specify the negative
* prefix and suffix; the number of digits, minimal digits, and other
* characteristics are ignored in the negative subpattern. That means that
* "#,##0.0#;(#)" has precisely the same result as "#,##0.0#;(#,##0.0#)".
*
* <p>The prefixes, suffixes, and various symbols used for infinity, digits,
* thousands separators, decimal separators, etc. may be set to arbitrary
* values, and they will appear properly during formatting. However, care must
* be taken that the symbols and strings do not conflict, or parsing will be
* unreliable. For example, either the positive and negative prefixes or the
* suffixes must be distinct for {@link #parse} to be able
* to distinguish positive from negative values. Another example is that the
* decimal separator and thousands separator should be distinct characters, or
* parsing will be impossible.
*
* <p>The <em>grouping separator</em> is a character that separates clusters of
* integer digits to make large numbers more legible. It commonly used for
* thousands, but in some locales it separates ten-thousands. The <em>grouping
* size</em> is the number of digits between the grouping separators, such as 3
* for "100,000,000" or 4 for "1 0000 0000". There are actually two different
* grouping sizes: One used for the least significant integer digits, the
* <em>primary grouping size</em>, and one used for all others, the
* <em>secondary grouping size</em>. In most locales these are the same, but
* sometimes they are different. For example, if the primary grouping interval
* is 3, and the secondary is 2, then this corresponds to the pattern
* "#,##,##0", and the number 123456789 is formatted as "12,34,56,789". If a
* pattern contains multiple grouping separators, the interval between the last
* one and the end of the integer defines the primary grouping size, and the
* interval between the last two defines the secondary grouping size. All others
* are ignored, so "#,##,###,####" == "###,###,####" == "##,#,###,####".
*
* <p>Illegal patterns, such as "#.#.#" or "#.###,###", will cause
* <code>DecimalFormat</code> to throw an {@link IllegalArgumentException}
* with a message that describes the problem.
*
* <h4>Pattern BNF</h4>
*
* <pre>
* pattern := subpattern (';' subpattern)?
* subpattern := prefix? number exponent? suffix?
* number := (integer ('.' fraction)?) | sigDigits
* prefix := '&#92;u0000'..'&#92;uFFFD' - specialCharacters
* suffix := '&#92;u0000'..'&#92;uFFFD' - specialCharacters
* integer := '#'* '0'* '0'
* fraction := '0'* '#'*
* sigDigits := '#'* '@' '@'* '#'*
* exponent := 'E' '+'? '0'* '0'
* padSpec := '*' padChar
* padChar := '&#92;u0000'..'&#92;uFFFD' - quote
* &#32;
* Notation:
* X* 0 or more instances of X
* X? 0 or 1 instances of X
* X|Y either X or Y
* C..D any character from C up to D, inclusive
* S-T characters in S, except those in T
* </pre>
* The first subpattern is for positive numbers. The second (optional)
* subpattern is for negative numbers.
*
* <p>Not indicated in the BNF syntax above:
*
* <ul><li>The grouping separator ',' can occur inside the integer and
* sigDigits elements, between any two pattern characters of that
* element, as long as the integer or sigDigits element is not
* followed by the exponent element.
*
* <li><font color=red face=helvetica><strong>NEW</strong></font>
* Two grouping intervals are recognized: That between the
* decimal point and the first grouping symbol, and that
* between the first and second grouping symbols. These
* intervals are identical in most locales, but in some
* locales they differ. For example, the pattern
* &quot;#,##,###&quot; formats the number 123456789 as
* &quot;12,34,56,789&quot;.</li>
*
* <li>
* <strong><font face=helvetica color=red>NEW</font></strong>
* The pad specifier <code>padSpec</code> may appear before the prefix,
* after the prefix, before the suffix, after the suffix, or not at all.
*
* <li>
* <strong><font face=helvetica color=red>NEW</font></strong>
* In place of '0', the digits '1' through '9' may be used to
* indicate a rounding increment.
* </ul>
*
* <h4>Parsing</h4>
*
* <p><code>DecimalFormat</code> parses all Unicode characters that represent
* decimal digits, as defined by {@link UCharacter#digit}. In addition,
* <code>DecimalFormat</code> also recognizes as digits the ten consecutive
* characters starting with the localized zero digit defined in the
* {@link DecimalFormatSymbols} object. During formatting, the
* {@link DecimalFormatSymbols}-based digits are output.
*
* <p>During parsing, grouping separators are ignored.
*
* <p>If {@link #parse(String, ParsePosition)} fails to parse
* a string, it returns <code>null</code> and leaves the parse position
* unchanged. The convenience method {@link #parse(String)}
* indicates parse failure by throwing a {@link java.text.ParseException}.
*
* <h4>Formatting</h4>
*
* <p>Formatting is guided by several parameters, all of which can be
* specified either using a pattern or using the API. The following
* description applies to formats that do not use <a href="#sci">scientific
* notation</a> or <a href="#sigdig">significant digits</a>.
*
* <ul><li>If the number of actual integer digits exceeds the
* <em>maximum integer digits</em>, then only the least significant
* digits are shown. For example, 1997 is formatted as "97" if the
* maximum integer digits is set to 2.
*
* <li>If the number of actual integer digits is less than the
* <em>minimum integer digits</em>, then leading zeros are added. For
* example, 1997 is formatted as "01997" if the minimum integer digits
* is set to 5.
*
* <li>If the number of actual fraction digits exceeds the <em>maximum
* fraction digits</em>, then half-even rounding it performed to the
* maximum fraction digits. For example, 0.125 is formatted as "0.12"
* if the maximum fraction digits is 2. This behavior can be changed
* by specifying a rounding increment and a rounding mode.
*
* <li>If the number of actual fraction digits is less than the
* <em>minimum fraction digits</em>, then trailing zeros are added.
* For example, 0.125 is formatted as "0.1250" if the mimimum fraction
* digits is set to 4.
*
* <li>Trailing fractional zeros are not displayed if they occur
* <em>j</em> positions after the decimal, where <em>j</em> is less
* than the maximum fraction digits. For example, 0.10004 is
* formatted as "0.1" if the maximum fraction digits is four or less.
* </ul>
*
* <p><strong>Special Values</strong>
*
* <p><code>NaN</code> is represented as a single character, typically
* <code>&#92;uFFFD</code>. This character is determined by the
* {@link DecimalFormatSymbols} object. This is the only value for which
* the prefixes and suffixes are not used.
*
* <p>Infinity is represented as a single character, typically
* <code>&#92;u221E</code>, with the positive or negative prefixes and suffixes
* applied. The infinity character is determined by the
* {@link DecimalFormatSymbols} object.
*
* <a name="sci"><h4>Scientific Notation</h4></a>
*
* <p>Numbers in scientific notation are expressed as the product of a mantissa
* and a power of ten, for example, 1234 can be expressed as 1.234 x 10<sup>3</sup>. The
* mantissa is typically in the half-open interval [1.0, 10.0) or sometimes [0.0, 1.0),
* but it need not be. <code>DecimalFormat</code> supports arbitrary mantissas.
* <code>DecimalFormat</code> can be instructed to use scientific
* notation through the API or through the pattern. In a pattern, the exponent
* character immediately followed by one or more digit characters indicates
* scientific notation. Example: "0.###E0" formats the number 1234 as
* "1.234E3".
*
* <ul>
* <li>The number of digit characters after the exponent character gives the
* minimum exponent digit count. There is no maximum. Negative exponents are
* formatted using the localized minus sign, <em>not</em> the prefix and suffix
* from the pattern. This allows patterns such as "0.###E0 m/s". To prefix
* positive exponents with a localized plus sign, specify '+' between the
* exponent and the digits: "0.###E+0" will produce formats "1E+1", "1E+0",
* "1E-1", etc. (In localized patterns, use the localized plus sign rather than
* '+'.)
*
* <li>The minimum number of integer digits is achieved by adjusting the
* exponent. Example: 0.00123 formatted with "00.###E0" yields "12.3E-4". This
* only happens if there is no maximum number of integer digits. If there is a
* maximum, then the minimum number of integer digits is fixed at one.
*
* <li>The maximum number of integer digits, if present, specifies the exponent
* grouping. The most common use of this is to generate <em>engineering
* notation</em>, in which the exponent is a multiple of three, e.g.,
* "##0.###E0". The number 12345 is formatted using "##0.####E0" as "12.345E3".
*
* <li>When using scientific notation, the formatter controls the
* digit counts using significant digits logic. The maximum number of
* significant digits limits the total number of integer and fraction
* digits that will be shown in the mantissa; it does not affect
* parsing. For example, 12345 formatted with "##0.##E0" is "12.3E3".
* See the section on significant digits for more details.
*
* <li>The number of significant digits shown is determined as
* follows: If areSignificantDigitsUsed() returns false, then the
* minimum number of significant digits shown is one, and the maximum
* number of significant digits shown is the sum of the <em>minimum
* integer</em> and <em>maximum fraction</em> digits, and is
* unaffected by the maximum integer digits. If this sum is zero,
* then all significant digits are shown. If
* areSignificantDigitsUsed() returns true, then the significant digit
* counts are specified by getMinimumSignificantDigits() and
* getMaximumSignificantDigits(). In this case, the number of
* integer digits is fixed at one, and there is no exponent grouping.
*
* <li>Exponential patterns may not contain grouping separators.
* </ul>
*
* <a name="sigdig"><h4>
* <strong><font face=helvetica color=red>NEW</font></strong>
* Significant Digits</h4></a>
*
* <code>DecimalFormat</code> has two ways of controlling how many
* digits are shows: (a) significant digits counts, or (b) integer and
* fraction digit counts. Integer and fraction digit counts are
* described above. When a formatter is using significant digits
* counts, the number of integer and fraction digits is not specified
* directly, and the formatter settings for these counts are ignored.
* Instead, the formatter uses however many integer and fraction
* digits are required to display the specified number of significant
* digits. Examples:
*
* <blockquote>
* <table border=0 cellspacing=3 cellpadding=0>
* <tr bgcolor="#ccccff">
* <th align=left>Pattern
* <th align=left>Minimum significant digits
* <th align=left>Maximum significant digits
* <th align=left>Number
* <th align=left>Output of format()
* <tr valign=top>
* <td><code>@@@</code>
* <td>3
* <td>3
* <td>12345
* <td><code>12300</code>
* <tr valign=top bgcolor="#eeeeff">
* <td><code>@@@</code>
* <td>3
* <td>3
* <td>0.12345
* <td><code>0.123</code>
* <tr valign=top>
* <td><code>@@##</code>
* <td>2
* <td>4
* <td>3.14159
* <td><code>3.142</code>
* <tr valign=top bgcolor="#eeeeff">
* <td><code>@@##</code>
* <td>2
* <td>4
* <td>1.23004
* <td><code>1.23</code>
* </table>
* </blockquote>
*
* <ul>
* <li>Significant digit counts may be expressed using patterns that
* specify a minimum and maximum number of significant digits. These
* are indicated by the <code>'@'</code> and <code>'#'</code>
* characters. The minimum number of significant digits is the number
* of <code>'@'</code> characters. The maximum number of significant
* digits is the number of <code>'@'</code> characters plus the number
* of <code>'#'</code> characters following on the right. For
* example, the pattern <code>"@@@"</code> indicates exactly 3
* significant digits. The pattern <code>"@##"</code> indicates from
* 1 to 3 significant digits. Trailing zero digits to the right of
* the decimal separator are suppressed after the minimum number of
* significant digits have been shown. For example, the pattern
* <code>"@##"</code> formats the number 0.1203 as
* <code>"0.12"</code>.
*
* <li>If a pattern uses significant digits, it may not contain a
* decimal separator, nor the <code>'0'</code> pattern character.
* Patterns such as <code>"@00"</code> or <code>"@.###"</code> are
* disallowed.
*
* <li>Any number of <code>'#'</code> characters may be prepended to
* the left of the leftmost <code>'@'</code> character. These have no
* effect on the minimum and maximum significant digits counts, but
* may be used to position grouping separators. For example,
* <code>"#,#@#"</code> indicates a minimum of one significant digits,
* a maximum of two significant digits, and a grouping size of three.
*
* <li>In order to enable significant digits formatting, use a pattern
* containing the <code>'@'</code> pattern character. Alternatively,
* call {@link #setSignificantDigitsUsed setSignificantDigitsUsed(true)}.
*
* <li>In order to disable significant digits formatting, use a
* pattern that does not contain the <code>'@'</code> pattern
* character. Alternatively, call {@link #setSignificantDigitsUsed
* setSignificantDigitsUsed(false)}.
*
* <li>The number of significant digits has no effect on parsing.
*
* <li>Significant digits may be used together with exponential notation. Such
* patterns are equivalent to a normal exponential pattern with a minimum and
* maximum integer digit count of one, a minimum fraction digit count of
* <code>getMinimumSignificantDigits() - 1</code>, and a maximum fraction digit
* count of <code>getMaximumSignificantDigits() - 1</code>. For example, the
* pattern <code>"@@###E0"</code> is equivalent to <code>"0.0###E0"</code>.
*
* <li>If signficant digits are in use, then the integer and fraction
* digit counts, as set via the API, are ignored. If significant
* digits are not in use, then the signficant digit counts, as set via
* the API, are ignored.
*
* </ul>
*
* <h4>
* <strong><font face=helvetica color=red>NEW</font></strong>
* Padding</h4>
*
* <p><code>DecimalFormat</code> supports padding the result of
* {@link #format} to a specific width. Padding may be specified either
* through the API or through the pattern syntax. In a pattern the pad escape
* character, followed by a single pad character, causes padding to be parsed
* and formatted. The pad escape character is '*' in unlocalized patterns, and
* can be localized using {@link DecimalFormatSymbols#setPadEscape}. For
* example, <code>"$*x#,##0.00"</code> formats 123 to <code>"$xx123.00"</code>,
* and 1234 to <code>"$1,234.00"</code>.
*
* <ul>
* <li>When padding is in effect, the width of the positive subpattern,
* including prefix and suffix, determines the format width. For example, in
* the pattern <code>"* #0 o''clock"</code>, the format width is 10.
*
* <li>The width is counted in 16-bit code units (Java <code>char</code>s).
*
* <li>Some parameters which usually do not matter have meaning when padding is
* used, because the pattern width is significant with padding. In the pattern
* "* ##,##,#,##0.##", the format width is 14. The initial characters "##,##,"
* do not affect the grouping size or maximum integer digits, but they do affect
* the format width.
*
* <li>Padding may be inserted at one of four locations: before the prefix,
* after the prefix, before the suffix, or after the suffix. If padding is
* specified in any other location, {@link #applyPattern} throws an {@link
* IllegalArgumentException}. If there is no prefix, before the
* prefix and after the prefix are equivalent, likewise for the suffix.
*
* <li>When specified in a pattern, the 16-bit <code>char</code> immediately
* following the pad escape is the pad character. This may be any character,
* including a special pattern character. That is, the pad escape
* <em>escapes</em> the following character. If there is no character after
* the pad escape, then the pattern is illegal.
*
* </ul>
*
* <p>
* <strong><font face=helvetica color=red>NEW</font></strong>
* <strong>Rounding</strong>
*
* <p><code>DecimalFormat</code> supports rounding to a specific increment. For
* example, 1230 rounded to the nearest 50 is 1250. 1.234 rounded to the
* nearest 0.65 is 1.3. The rounding increment may be specified through the API
* or in a pattern. To specify a rounding increment in a pattern, include the
* increment in the pattern itself. "#,#50" specifies a rounding increment of
* 50. "#,##0.05" specifies a rounding increment of 0.05.
*
* <ul>
* <li>Rounding only affects the string produced by formatting. It does
* not affect parsing or change any numerical values.
*
* <li>A <em>rounding mode</em> determines how values are rounded; see the
* {@link com.ibm.icu.math.BigDecimal} documentation for a description of the
* modes. Rounding increments specified in patterns use the default mode,
* {@link com.ibm.icu.math.BigDecimal#ROUND_HALF_EVEN}.
*
* <li>Some locales use rounding in their currency formats to reflect the
* smallest currency denomination.
*
* <li>In a pattern, digits '1' through '9' specify rounding, but otherwise
* behave identically to digit '0'.
* </ul>
