/**@class java.text.DecimalFormat
@extends java.text.NumberFormat

 <code>DecimalFormat</code> is a concrete subclass of
 <code>NumberFormat</code> 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, and Indic digits.  It also
 supports different kinds of numbers, including integers (123), fixed-point
 numbers (123.4), scientific notation (1.23E4), percentages (12%), and
 currency amounts ($123).  All of these can be localized.

 <p>To obtain a <code>NumberFormat</code> for a specific locale, including the
 default locale, call one of <code>NumberFormat</code>'s factory methods, such
 as <code>getInstance()</code>.  In general, do not call the
 <code>DecimalFormat</code> constructors directly, since the
 <code>NumberFormat</code> 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>A <code>DecimalFormat</code> comprises a <em>pattern</em> and a set of
 <em>symbols</em>.  The pattern may be set directly using
 <code>applyPattern()</code>, or indirectly using the API methods.  The
 symbols are stored in a <code>DecimalFormatSymbols</code> object.  When using
 the <code>NumberFormat</code> factory methods, the pattern and symbols are
 read from localized <code>ResourceBundle</code>s.

 <h3>Patterns</h3>

 <code>DecimalFormat</code> patterns have the following syntax:
 <blockquote><pre>
 <i>Pattern:</i>
         <i>PositivePattern</i>
         <i>PositivePattern</i> ; <i>NegativePattern</i>
 <i>PositivePattern:</i>
         <i>Prefix<sub>opt</sub></i> <i>Number</i> <i>Suffix<sub>opt</sub></i>
 <i>NegativePattern:</i>
         <i>Prefix<sub>opt</sub></i> <i>Number</i> <i>Suffix<sub>opt</sub></i>
 <i>Prefix:</i>
         any Unicode characters except &#92;uFFFE, &#92;uFFFF, and special characters
 <i>Suffix:</i>

         0 , <i>MinimumInteger</i>
 <i>Fraction:</i>
         <i>MinimumFraction<sub>opt</sub></i> <i>OptionalFraction<sub>opt</sub></i>
 <i>MinimumFraction:</i>

         # <i>OptionalFraction<sub>opt</sub></i>
 <i>Exponent:</i>
         E <i>MinimumExponent</i>
 <i>MinimumExponent:</i>
         0 <i>MinimumExponent<sub>opt</sub></i>
 </pre></blockquote>

 <p>A <code>DecimalFormat</code> pattern contains a positive and negative
 subpattern, for example, <code>"#,##0.00;(#,##0.00)"</code>.  Each
 subpattern has a prefix, numeric part, and suffix. The negative subpattern
 is optional; if absent, then the positive subpattern prefixed with the
 localized minus sign (<code>'-'</code> in most locales) is used as the
 negative subpattern. That is, <code>"0.00"</code> alone is equivalent to
 <code>"0.00;-0.00"</code>.  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 all the same as the positive
 pattern. That means that <code>"#,##0.0#;(#)"</code> produces precisely
 the same behavior as <code>"#,##0.0#;(#,##0.0#)"</code>.

 <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 <code>DecimalFormat.parse()</code> to be able
 to distinguish positive from negative values.  (If they are identical, then
 <code>DecimalFormat</code> will behave as if no negative subpattern was
 specified.)  Another example is that the decimal separator and thousands
 separator should be distinct characters, or parsing will be impossible.

 <p>The grouping separator is commonly used for thousands, but in some
 countries it separates ten-thousands. The grouping size is a constant number
 of digits between the grouping characters, such as 3 for 100,000,000 or 4 for
 1,0000,0000.  If you supply a pattern with multiple grouping characters, the
 interval between the last one and the end of the integer is the one that is
 used. So <code>"#,##,###,####"</code> == <code>"######,####"</code> ==
 <code>"##,####,####"</code>.

 <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.
 They must be quoted, unless noted otherwise, if they are to appear in the
 prefix or suffix as literals.

 <p>The characters listed here are used in non-localized patterns.  Localized
 patterns use the corresponding characters taken from this formatter's
 <code>DecimalFormatSymbols</code> object instead, and these characters lose
 their special status.  Two exceptions are the currency sign and quote, which
 are not localized.

 </blockquote>

 <h4>Scientific Notation</h4>

 <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 10^3.  The
 mantissa is often in the range 1.0 &le; x {@literal <} 10.0, but it need not
 be.
 <code>DecimalFormat</code> can be instructed to format and parse scientific
 notation <em>only via a pattern</em>; there is currently no factory method
 that creates a scientific notation format.  In a pattern, the exponent
 character immediately followed by one or more digit characters indicates
 scientific notation.  Example: <code>"0.###E0"</code> formats the number
 1234 as <code>"1.234E3"</code>.

 <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 <code>"0.###E0 m/s"</code>.

 <li>The minimum and maximum number of integer digits are interpreted
 together:

 <ul>
 <li>If the maximum number of integer digits is greater than their minimum number
 and greater than 1, it forces the exponent to be a multiple of the maximum
 number of integer digits, and the minimum number of integer digits to be
 interpreted as 1.  The most common use of this is to generate
 <em>engineering notation</em>, in which the exponent is a multiple of three,
 e.g., <code>"##0.#####E0"</code>. Using this pattern, the number 12345
 formats to <code>"12.345E3"</code>, and 123456 formats to
 <code>"123.456E3"</code>.

 <li>Otherwise, the minimum number of integer digits is achieved by adjusting the
 exponent.  Example: 0.00123 formatted with <code>"00.###E0"</code> yields
 <code>"12.3E-4"</code>.
 </ul>

 <li>The number of significant digits in the mantissa is the sum of the
 <em>minimum integer</em> and <em>maximum fraction</em> digits, and is
 unaffected by the maximum integer digits.  For example, 12345 formatted with
 <code>"##0.##E0"</code> is <code>"12.3E3"</code>. To show all digits, set
 the significant digits count to zero.  The number of significant digits
 does not affect parsing.

 <li>Exponential patterns may not contain grouping separators.
 </ul>

 <h4>Rounding</h4>

 <code>DecimalFormat</code> provides rounding modes defined in
 {@link java.math.RoundingMode} for formatting.  By default, it uses
 {@link java.math.RoundingMode#HALF_EVEN RoundingMode.HALF_EVEN}.

 <h4>Digits</h4>

 For formatting, <code>DecimalFormat</code> uses the ten consecutive
 characters starting with the localized zero digit defined in the
 <code>DecimalFormatSymbols</code> object as digits. For parsing, these
 digits as well as all Unicode decimal digits, as defined by
 {@link Character#digit Character.digit}, are recognized.

 <h4>Special Values</h4>

 <p><code>NaN</code> is formatted as a string, which typically has a single character
 <code>&#92;uFFFD</code>.  This string is determined by the
 <code>DecimalFormatSymbols</code> object.  This is the only value for which
 the prefixes and suffixes are not used.

 <p>Infinity is formatted as a string, which typically has a single character
 <code>&#92;u221E</code>, with the positive or negative prefixes and suffixes
 applied.  The infinity string is determined by the
 <code>DecimalFormatSymbols</code> object.

 <p>Negative zero (<code>"-0"</code>) parses to
 <ul>
 <li><code>BigDecimal(0)</code> if <code>isParseBigDecimal()</code> is
 true,
 <li><code>Long(0)</code> if <code>isParseBigDecimal()</code> is false
     and <code>isParseIntegerOnly()</code> is true,
 <li><code>Double(-0.0)</code> if both <code>isParseBigDecimal()</code>
 and <code>isParseIntegerOnly()</code> are false.
 </ul>

 <h4><a name="synchronization">Synchronization</a></h4>

 <p>
 Decimal formats are generally 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.

 <h4>Example</h4>

 <blockquote><pre>{@code
 <strong>// Print out a number using the localized number, integer, currency,
 // and percent format for each locale</strong>
 Locale[] locales = NumberFormat.getAvailableLocales();
 double myNumber = -1234.56;
 NumberFormat form;
 for (int j = 0; j < 4; ++j) {
     System.out.println("FORMAT");
     for (int i = 0; i < locales.length; ++i) {
         if (locales[i].getCountry().length() == 0) {
            continue; // Skip language-only locales
         }
         System.out.print(locales[i].getDisplayName());
         switch (j) {
         case 0:
             form = NumberFormat.getInstance(locales[i]); break;
         case 1:
             form = NumberFormat.getIntegerInstance(locales[i]); break;
         case 2:
             form = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(locales[i]); break;
         default:
             form = NumberFormat.getPercentInstance(locales[i]); break;
         }
         if (form instanceof DecimalFormat) {
             System.out.print(": " + ((DecimalFormat) form).toPattern());
         }
         System.out.print(" -> " + form.format(myNumber));
         try {
