/**
 * A concrete subclass of {@link NumberFormat} that formats decimal numbers. It
 * has a variety of features designed to make it possible to parse and format
 * numbers in any locale, including support for Western, Arabic, or Indic
 * digits. It also supports different flavors of numbers, including integers
 * ("123"), fixed-point numbers ("123.4"), scientific notation ("1.23E4"),
 * percentages ("12%"), and currency amounts ("$123"). All of these flavors can
 * be easily localized.
 * <p>
 * <strong>This is an enhanced version of {@code DecimalFormat} that is based on
 * the standard version in the RI. New or changed functionality is labeled
 * <strong><font color="red">NEW</font></strong>.</strong>
 * <p>
 * To obtain a {@link NumberFormat} for a specific locale (including the default
 * locale), call one of {@code NumberFormat}'s factory methods such as
 * {@code NumberFormat.getInstance}. Do not call the {@code DecimalFormat}
 * constructors directly, unless you know what you are doing, since the
 * {@link NumberFormat} factory methods may return subclasses other than
 * {@code DecimalFormat}. 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>
 *
 * <h4>Patterns</h4>
 * <p>
 * A {@code DecimalFormat} consists of a <em>pattern</em> and a set of
 * <em>symbols</em>. The pattern may be set directly using
 * {@link #applyPattern(String)}, 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 are written out unchanged during formatting. On the other hand,
 * special characters 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.

 * <p>
 * A {@code DecimalFormat} pattern contains a positive 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. This means that "#,##0.0#;(#)" produces
 * 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 is 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 "#,##,###,####", "###,###,####" and "##,#,###,####" produce
 * the same result.
 * <p>
 * Illegal patterns, such as "#.#.#" or "#.###,###", will cause
 * {@code DecimalFormat} 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     := '\\u0000'..'\\uFFFD' - specialCharacters
 * suffix     := '\\u0000'..'\\uFFFD' - specialCharacters
 * integer    := '#'* '0'* '0'
 * fraction   := '0'* '#'*
 * sigDigits  := '#'* '@' '@'* '#'*
 * exponent   := 'E' '+'? '0'* '0'
 * padSpec    := '*' padChar
 * padChar    := '\\u0000'..'\\uFFFD' - quote
 *
 * 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"><strong>NEW</strong>&nbsp;</font> Two
 * grouping intervals are recognized: The one between the decimal point and the
 * first grouping symbol and the one 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 color="red">NEW</font>&nbsp;</strong> The pad
 * specifier {@code padSpec} may appear before the prefix, after the prefix,
 * before the suffix, after the suffix or not at all.
 * </ul>
 * <h4>Parsing</h4>
 * <p>
 * {@code DecimalFormat} parses all Unicode characters that represent decimal
 * digits, as defined by {@link Character#digit(int, int)}. In addition,
 * {@code DecimalFormat} 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 written out.
 * <p>
 * During parsing, grouping separators are ignored.
 * <p>
 * If {@link #parse(String, ParsePosition)} fails to parse a string, it returns
 * {@code null} and leaves the parse position unchanged.
 * <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 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 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 is performed to the maximum fraction digits. For
 * example, 0.125 is formatted as "0.12" if the maximum fraction digits is 2.
 * <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 minimum 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} is represented as a single character, typically
 * {@code \u005cuFFFD}. 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 \u005cu221E},
 * 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 does not need to be. {@code DecimalFormat} supports
 * arbitrary mantissas. {@code DecimalFormat} 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 no
 * significant digits are used in the pattern then the minimum number of
 * significant digits shown is one, the maximum number of significant digits
 * shown is the sum of the <em>minimum integer</em> and
 * <em>maximum fraction</em> digits, and it is unaffected by the maximum
 * integer digits. If this sum is zero, then all significant digits are shown.
 * If significant digits are used in the pattern then 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"></a>
 * <h4> <strong><font color="red">NEW</font>&nbsp;</strong> Significant
 * Digits</h4>
 * <p>
 * {@code DecimalFormat} has two ways of controlling how many digits are
 * shown: (a) significant digit counts or (b) integer and fraction digit counts.
 * Integer and fraction digit counts are described above. When a formatter uses
 * 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 as many integer and fraction digits as required
 * to display the specified number of significant digits.
 * <h5>Examples:</h5>
 * <blockquote> <table border=0 cellspacing=3 cellpadding=0>
 * <tr bgcolor="#ccccff">
 * <th align="left">Pattern</th>

 * <td>1.23004</td>
 * <td>{@code 1.23}</td>
 * </tr>
 * </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 '@'} and {@code '#'} characters. The minimum number of significant
 * digits is the number of {@code '@'} characters. The maximum number of
 * significant digits is the number of {@code '@'} characters plus the number of
 * {@code '#'} characters following on the right. For example, the pattern
 * {@code "@@@"} indicates exactly 3 significant digits. The pattern
 * {@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 "@##"}
 * formats the number 0.1203 as {@code "0.12"}.
 * <li>If a pattern uses significant digits, it may not contain a decimal
 * separator, nor the {@code '0'} pattern character. Patterns such as
 * {@code "@00"} or {@code "@.###"} are disallowed.
 * <li>Any number of {@code '#'} characters may be prepended to the left of the
 * leftmost {@code '@'} character. These have no effect on the minimum and
 * maximum significant digit counts, but may be used to position grouping
 * separators. For example, {@code "#,#@#"} indicates a minimum of one
 * significant digit, 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 '@'} pattern character.
 * <li>In order to disable significant digits formatting, use a pattern that
 * does not contain the {@code '@'} pattern character.
 * <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 the
 * number of '@' characters in the pattern - 1, and a maximum fraction digit
 * count of the number of '@' and '#' characters in the pattern - 1. For
 * example, the pattern {@code "@@###E0"} is equivalent to {@code "0.0###E0"}.
 * <li>If significant digits are in use then the integer and fraction digit
 * counts, as set via the API, are ignored.
 * </ul>
 * <h4> <strong><font color="red">NEW</font>&nbsp;</strong> Padding</h4>
 * <p>
 * {@code DecimalFormat} supports padding the result of {@code 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. For example,
 * {@code "$*x#,##0.00"} formats 123 to {@code "$xx123.00"}, and 1234 to
 * {@code "$1,234.00"}.
 * <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"}, the format width is 10.</li>
 * <li>The width is counted in 16-bit code units (Java {@code char}s).</li>
 * <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>
 * <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>
 * <li>When specified in a pattern, the 16-bit {@code char} 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.</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <h4>Serialization</h4>
 * <p>
 * Features marked as <strong><font color="red">NEW</font></strong> and patterns that use
 * characters not documented above are unlikely to serialize/deserialize correctly.
 *
 * <h4>Synchronization</h4>
 * <p>
 * {@code DecimalFormat} objects are not synchronized. Multiple threads should
 * not access one formatter concurrently.
