     61  * The RuleBasedNumberFormat class formats numbers according to a set of rules. This number formatter is
     62  * typically used for spelling out numeric values in words (e.g., 25,3476 as
     63  * "twenty-five thousand three hundred seventy-six" or "vingt-cinq mille trois
     64  * cents soixante-seize" or
     65  * "fünfundzwanzigtausenddreihundertsechsundsiebzig"), but can also be used for
     66  * other complicated formatting tasks, such as formatting a number of seconds as hours,
     67  * minutes and seconds (e.g., 3,730 as "1:02:10").
     68  *
     69  * <p>The resources contain three predefined formatters for each locale: spellout, which
     70  * spells out a value in words (123 is &quot;one hundred twenty-three&quot;); ordinal, which
     71  * appends an ordinal suffix to the end of a numeral (123 is &quot;123rd&quot;); and
     72  * duration, which shows a duration in seconds as hours, minutes, and seconds (123 is
     73  * &quot;2:03&quot;).&nbsp; The client can also define more specialized <tt>RuleBasedNumberFormat</tt>s
     74  * by supplying programmer-defined rule sets.</p>
     75  *
     76  * <p>The behavior of a <tt>RuleBasedNumberFormat</tt> is specified by a textual description
     77  * that is either passed to the constructor as a <tt>String</tt> or loaded from a resource
     78  * bundle. In its simplest form, the description consists of a semicolon-delimited list of <em>rules.</em>
     79  * Each rule has a string of output text and a value or range of values it is applicable to.
     80  * In a typical spellout rule set, the first twenty rules are the words for the numbers from
     81  * 0 to 19:</p>
     82  *
     83  * <pre>zero; one; two; three; four; five; six; seven; eight; nine;
     84  * ten; eleven; twelve; thirteen; fourteen; fifteen; sixteen; seventeen; eighteen; nineteen;</pre>
     85  *
     86  * <p>For larger numbers, we can use the preceding set of rules to format the ones place, and
     87  * we only have to supply the words for the multiples of 10:</p>
     88  *
     89  * <pre> 20: twenty[-&gt;&gt;];
     90  * 30: thirty[-&gt;&gt;];
     91  * 40: forty[-&gt;&gt;];
     92  * 50: fifty[-&gt;&gt;];
     93  * 60: sixty[-&gt;&gt;];
     94  * 70: seventy[-&gt;&gt;];
     95  * 80: eighty[-&gt;&gt;];
     96  * 90: ninety[-&gt;&gt;];</pre>
     97  *
     98  * <p>In these rules, the <em>base value</em> is spelled out explicitly and set off from the
     99  * rule's output text with a colon. The rules are in a sorted list, and a rule is applicable
    100  * to all numbers from its own base value to one less than the next rule's base value. The
    101  * &quot;&gt;&gt;&quot; token is called a <em>substitution</em> and tells the fomatter to
    102  * isolate the number's ones digit, format it using this same set of rules, and place the
    103  * result at the position of the &quot;&gt;&gt;&quot; token. Text in brackets is omitted if
    104  * the number being formatted is an even multiple of 10 (the hyphen is a literal hyphen; 24
    105  * is &quot;twenty-four,&quot; not &quot;twenty four&quot;).</p>
    106  *
    107  * <p>For even larger numbers, we can actually look up several parts of the number in the
    108  * list:</p>
    109  *
    110  * <pre>100: &lt;&lt; hundred[ &gt;&gt;];</pre>
    111  *
    112  * <p>The &quot;&lt;&lt;&quot; represents a new kind of substitution. The &lt;&lt; isolates
    113  * the hundreds digit (and any digits to its left), formats it using this same rule set, and
    114  * places the result where the &quot;&lt;&lt;&quot; was. Notice also that the meaning of
    115  * &gt;&gt; has changed: it now refers to both the tens and the ones digits. The meaning of
    116  * both substitutions depends on the rule's base value. The base value determines the rule's <em>divisor,</em>
    117  * which is the highest power of 10 that is less than or equal to the base value (the user
    118  * can change this). To fill in the substitutions, the formatter divides the number being
    119  * formatted by the divisor. The integral quotient is used to fill in the &lt;&lt;
    120  * substitution, and the remainder is used to fill in the &gt;&gt; substitution. The meaning
    121  * of the brackets changes similarly: text in brackets is omitted if the value being
    122  * formatted is an even multiple of the rule's divisor. The rules are applied recursively, so
    123  * if a substitution is filled in with text that includes another substitution, that
    124  * substitution is also filled in.</p>
    125  *
    126  * <p>This rule covers values up to 999, at which point we add another rule:</p>
    127  *
    128  * <pre>1000: &lt;&lt; thousand[ &gt;&gt;];</pre>
    129  *
    130  * <p>Again, the meanings of the brackets and substitution tokens shift because the rule's
    131  * base value is a higher power of 10, changing the rule's divisor. This rule can actually be
    132  * used all the way up to 999,999. This allows us to finish out the rules as follows:</p>
    133  *
    134  * <pre> 1,000,000: &lt;&lt; million[ &gt;&gt;];
    135  * 1,000,000,000: &lt;&lt; billion[ &gt;&gt;];
    136  * 1,000,000,000,000: &lt;&lt; trillion[ &gt;&gt;];
    137  * 1,000,000,000,000,000: OUT OF RANGE!;</pre>
    138  *
    139  * <p>Commas, periods, and spaces can be used in the base values to improve legibility and
    140  * are ignored by the rule parser. The last rule in the list is customarily treated as an
    141  * &quot;overflow rule,&quot; applying to everything from its base value on up, and often (as
    142  * in this example) being used to print out an error message or default representation.
    143  * Notice also that the size of the major groupings in large numbers is controlled by the
    144  * spacing of the rules: because in English we group numbers by thousand, the higher rules
    145  * are separated from each other by a factor of 1,000.</p>
    146  *
    147  * <p>To see how these rules actually work in practice, consider the following example:
    148  * Formatting 25,430 with this rule set would work like this:</p>
    149  *
    150  * <table border="0" width="100%">
    151  *   <tr>
    152  *     <td><strong>&lt;&lt; thousand &gt;&gt;</strong></td>
    153  *     <td>[the rule whose base value is 1,000 is applicable to 25,340]</td>
    154  *   </tr>
    155  *   <tr>
    156  *     <td><strong>twenty-&gt;&gt;</strong> thousand &gt;&gt;</td>
    157  *     <td>[25,340 over 1,000 is 25. The rule for 20 applies.]</td>
    158  *   </tr>
    159  *   <tr>
    160  *     <td>twenty-<strong>five</strong> thousand &gt;&gt;</td>
    161  *     <td>[25 mod 10 is 5. The rule for 5 is &quot;five.&quot;</td>
    162  *   </tr>
    163  *   <tr>
    164  *     <td>twenty-five thousand <strong>&lt;&lt; hundred &gt;&gt;</strong></td>
    165  *     <td>[25,340 mod 1,000 is 340. The rule for 100 applies.]</td>
    166  *   </tr>
    167  *   <tr>
    168  *     <td>twenty-five thousand <strong>three</strong> hundred &gt;&gt;</td>
    169  *     <td>[340 over 100 is 3. The rule for 3 is &quot;three.&quot;]</td>
    170  *   </tr>
    171  *   <tr>
    172  *     <td>twenty-five thousand three hundred <strong>forty</strong></td>
    173  *     <td>[340 mod 100 is 40. The rule for 40 applies. Since 40 divides
    174  *     evenly by 10, the hyphen and substitution in the brackets are omitted.]</td>
    175  *   </tr>
    176  * </table>
    177  *
    178  * <p>The above syntax suffices only to format positive integers. To format negative numbers,
    179  * we add a special rule:</p>
    180  *
    181  * <pre>-x: minus &gt;&gt;;</pre>
    182  *
    183  * <p>This is called a <em>negative-number rule,</em> and is identified by &quot;-x&quot;
    184  * where the base value would be. This rule is used to format all negative numbers. the
    185  * &gt;&gt; token here means &quot;find the number's absolute value, format it with these
    186  * rules, and put the result here.&quot;</p>
    187  *
    188  * <p>We also add a special rule called a <em>fraction rule </em>for numbers with fractional
    189  * parts:</p>
    190  *
    191  * <pre>x.x: &lt;&lt; point &gt;&gt;;</pre>
    192  *
    193  * <p>This rule is used for all positive non-integers (negative non-integers pass through the
    194  * negative-number rule first and then through this rule). Here, the &lt;&lt; token refers to
    195  * the number's integral part, and the &gt;&gt; to the number's fractional part. The
    196  * fractional part is formatted as a series of single-digit numbers (e.g., 123.456 would be
    197  * formatted as &quot;one hundred twenty-three point four five six&quot;).</p>
    198  *
    199  * <p>To see how this rule syntax is applied to various languages, examine the resource data.</p>
    200  *
    201  * <p>There is actually much more flexibility built into the rule language than the
    202  * description above shows. A formatter may own multiple rule sets, which can be selected by
    203  * the caller, and which can use each other to fill in their substitutions. Substitutions can
    204  * also be filled in with digits, using a DecimalFormat object. There is syntax that can be
    205  * used to alter a rule's divisor in various ways. And there is provision for much more
    206  * flexible fraction handling. A complete description of the rule syntax follows:</p>
    207  *
    208  * <hr>
    209  *
    210  * <p>The description of a <tt>RuleBasedNumberFormat</tt>'s behavior consists of one or more <em>rule
    211  * sets.</em> Each rule set consists of a name, a colon, and a list of <em>rules.</em> A rule
    212  * set name must begin with a % sign. Rule sets with names that begin with a single % sign
    213  * are <em>public:</em> the caller can specify that they be used to format and parse numbers.
    214  * Rule sets with names that begin with %% are <em>private:</em> they exist only for the use
    215  * of other rule sets. If a formatter only has one rule set, the name may be omitted.</p>
    216  *
    217  * <p>The user can also specify a special &quot;rule set&quot; named <tt>%%lenient-parse</tt>.
    218  * The body of <tt>%%lenient-parse</tt> isn't a set of number-formatting rules, but a <tt>RuleBasedCollator</tt>
    219  * description which is used to define equivalences for lenient parsing. For more information
    220  * on the syntax, see <tt>RuleBasedCollator</tt>. For more information on lenient parsing,
    221  * see <tt>setLenientParse()</tt>.  <em>Note:</em> symbols that have syntactic meaning
    222  * in collation rules, such as '&amp;', have no particular meaning when appearing outside
    223  * of the <tt>lenient-parse</tt> rule set.</p>
    224  *
    225  * <p>The body of a rule set consists of an ordered, semicolon-delimited list of <em>rules.</em>
    226  * Internally, every rule has a base value, a divisor, rule text, and zero, one, or two <em>substitutions.</em>
    227  * These parameters are controlled by the description syntax, which consists of a <em>rule
    228  * descriptor,</em> a colon, and a <em>rule body.</em></p>
    229  *
    230  * <p>A rule descriptor can take one of the following forms (text in <em>italics</em> is the
    231  * name of a token):</p>
    232  *
    233  * <table border="0" width="100%">

    286  *
    287  * <p>A rule set may be either a regular rule set or a <em>fraction rule set,</em> depending
    288  * on whether it is used to format a number's integral part (or the whole number) or a
    289  * number's fractional part. Using a rule set to format a rule's fractional part makes it a
    290  * fraction rule set.</p>
    291  *
    292  * <p>Which rule is used to format a number is defined according to one of the following
    293  * algorithms: If the rule set is a regular rule set, do the following:
    294  *
    295  * <ul>
    296  *   <li>If the rule set includes a master rule (and the number was passed in as a <tt>double</tt>),
    297  *     use the master rule.&nbsp; (If the number being formatted was passed in as a <tt>long</tt>,
    298  *     the master rule is ignored.)</li>
    299  *   <li>If the number is negative, use the negative-number rule.</li>
    300  *   <li>If the number has a fractional part and is greater than 1, use the improper fraction
    301  *     rule.</li>
    302  *   <li>If the number has a fractional part and is between 0 and 1, use the proper fraction
    303  *     rule.</li>
    304  *   <li>Binary-search the rule list for the rule with the highest base value less than or equal
    305  *     to the number. If that rule has two substitutions, its base value is not an even multiple
    306  *     of its divisor, and the number <em>is</em> an even multiple of the rule's divisor, use the
    307  *     rule that precedes it in the rule list. Otherwise, use the rule itself.</li>
    308  * </ul>
    309  *
    310  * <p>If the rule set is a fraction rule set, do the following:
    311  *
    312  * <ul>
    313  *   <li>Ignore negative-number and fraction rules.</li>
    314  *   <li>For each rule in the list, multiply the number being formatted (which will always be
    315  *     between 0 and 1) by the rule's base value. Keep track of the distance between the result
    316  *     the nearest integer.</li>
    317  *   <li>Use the rule that produced the result closest to zero in the above calculation. In the
    318  *     event of a tie or a direct hit, use the first matching rule encountered. (The idea here is
    319  *     to try each rule's base value as a possible denominator of a fraction. Whichever
    320  *     denominator produces the fraction closest in value to the number being formatted wins.) If
    321  *     the rule following the matching rule has the same base value, use it if the numerator of
    322  *     the fraction is anything other than 1; if the numerator is 1, use the original matching
    323  *     rule. (This is to allow singular and plural forms of the rule text without a lot of extra
    324  *     hassle.)</li>
    325  * </ul>
    326  *
    327  * <p>A rule's body consists of a string of characters terminated by a semicolon. The rule
    328  * may include zero, one, or two <em>substitution tokens,</em> and a range of text in
    329  * brackets. The brackets denote optional text (and may also include one or both
    330  * substitutions). The exact meanings of the substitution tokens, and under what conditions
    331  * optional text is omitted, depend on the syntax of the substitution token and the context.
    332  * The rest of the text in a rule body is literal text that is output when the rule matches
    333  * the number being formatted.</p>
    334  *
    335  * <p>A substitution token begins and ends with a <em>token character.</em> The token
    336  * character and the context together specify a mathematical operation to be performed on the
    337  * number being formatted. An optional <em>substitution descriptor </em>specifies how the

    479  *
    480  * <p><b>Localizations</b></p>
    481  * <p>Constructors are available that allow the specification of localizations for the
    482  * public rule sets (and also allow more control over what public rule sets are available).
    483  * Localization data is represented as a textual description.  The description represents
    484  * an array of arrays of string.  The first element is an array of the public rule set names,
    485  * each of these must be one of the public rule set names that appear in the rules.  Only
    486  * names in this array will be treated as public rule set names by the API.  Each subsequent
    487  * element is an array of localizations of these names.  The first element of one of these
    488  * subarrays is the locale name, and the remaining elements are localizations of the
    489  * public rule set names, in the same order as they were listed in the first arrray.</p>
    490  * <p>In the syntax, angle brackets '<', '>' are used to delimit the arrays, and comma ',' is used
    491  * to separate elements of an array.  Whitespace is ignored, unless quoted.</p>
    492  * <p>For example:<pre>
    493  * < < %foo, %bar, %baz >,
    494  *   < en, Foo, Bar, Baz >,
    495  *   < fr, 'le Foo', 'le Bar', 'le Baz' >
