/**
 * An abstract class for date/time formatting subclasses which formats and
 * parses dates or time in a language-independent manner. The date/time
 * formatting subclass, such as {@link SimpleDateFormat}, allows for formatting
 * (i.e., date -> text), parsing (text -> date), and normalization. The date is
 * represented as a {@code Date} object or as the milliseconds since January 1,
 * 1970, 00:00:00 GMT.
 * <p>
 * DateFormat provides many class methods for obtaining default date/time
 * formatters based on the default or a given locale and a number of formatting
 * styles. The formatting styles include FULL, LONG, MEDIUM, and SHORT. More
 * details and examples for using these styles are provided in the method
 * descriptions.
 * <p>
 * {@code DateFormat} helps you to format and parse dates for any locale. Your
 * code can be completely independent of the locale conventions for months, days
 * of the week, or even the calendar format: lunar vs. solar.
 * <p>
 * To format a date for the current Locale, use one of the static factory
 * methods:
 * <blockquote>
 *
 * <pre>
 * myString = DateFormat.getDateInstance().format(myDate);
 * </pre>
 *
 * </blockquote>
 * <p>
 * If you are formatting multiple dates, it is more efficient to get the format
 * and use it multiple times so that the system doesn't have to fetch the
 * information about the local language and country conventions multiple times.
 * <blockquote>
 *
 * <pre>
 * DateFormat df = DateFormat.getDateInstance();
 * for (int i = 0; i &lt; a.length; ++i) {
 *     output.println(df.format(myDate[i]) + &quot;; &quot;);
 * }
 * </pre>
 *
 * </blockquote>
 * <p>
 * To format a number for a different locale, specify it in the call to
 * {@code getDateInstance}:
 * <blockquote>
 *
 * <pre>
 * DateFormat df = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.LONG, Locale.FRANCE);
 * </pre>
 *
 * </blockquote>
 * <p>
 * {@code DateFormat} can also be used to parse strings:
 * <blockquote>
 *
 * <pre>
 * myDate = df.parse(myString);
 * </pre>
 *
 * </blockquote>
 * <p>
 * Use {@code getDateInstance} to get the normal date format for a country.
 * Other static factory methods are available: Use {@code getTimeInstance} to
 * get the time format for a country. Use {@code getDateTimeInstance} to get the
 * date and time format. You can pass in different options to these factory
 * methods to control the length of the result; from SHORT to MEDIUM to LONG to
 * FULL. The exact result depends on the locale, but generally:
 * <ul>
 * <li>SHORT is completely numeric, such as 12.13.52 or 3:30pm
 * <li>MEDIUM is longer, such as Jan 12, 1952
 * <li>LONG is longer, such as January 12, 1952 or 3:30:32pm
 * <li>FULL is pretty completely specified, such as Tuesday, April 12, 1952 AD
 * or 3:30:42pm PST.
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * If needed, the time zone can be set on the format. For even greater control
 * over the formatting or parsing, try casting the {@code DateFormat} you get
 * from the factory methods to a {@code SimpleDateFormat}. This will work for
 * the majority of countries; just remember to put it in a try block in case you
 * encounter an unusual one.
 * <p>
 * There are versions of the parse and format methods which use
 * {@code ParsePosition} and {@code FieldPosition} to allow you to
 * <ul>
 * <li>progressively parse through pieces of a string;
 * <li>align any particular field.
 * </ul>
 * <h4>Synchronization</h4>
 * <p>
 * Date formats are not synchronized. It is recommended to create separate
 * format instances for each thread. If multiple threads access a format
 * concurrently, it must be synchronized externally.

 * @see SimpleDateFormat
