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

    285  *
    286  * <p>A rule set may be either a regular rule set or a <em>fraction rule set,</em> depending
    287  * on whether it is used to format a number's integral part (or the whole number) or a
    288  * number's fractional part. Using a rule set to format a rule's fractional part makes it a
    289  * fraction rule set.</p>
    290  *
    291  * <p>Which rule is used to format a number is defined according to one of the following
    292  * algorithms: If the rule set is a regular rule set, do the following:
    293  *
    294  * <ul>
    295  *   <li>If the rule set includes a master rule (and the number was passed in as a <tt>double</tt>),
    296  *     use the master rule.&nbsp; (If the number being formatted was passed in as a <tt>long</tt>,
    297  *     the master rule is ignored.)</li>
    298  *   <li>If the number is negative, use the negative-number rule.</li>
    299  *   <li>If the number has a fractional part and is greater than 1, use the improper fraction
    300  *     rule.</li>
    301  *   <li>If the number has a fractional part and is between 0 and 1, use the proper fraction
    302  *     rule.</li>
    303  *   <li>Binary-search the rule list for the rule with the highest base value less than or equal
    304  *     to the number. If that rule has two substitutions, its base value is not an even multiple
    305  *     of its divisor, and the number <em>is</em> an even multiple of the rule's divisor, use the
    306  *     rule that precedes it in the rule list. Otherwise, use the rule itself.</li>
    307  * </ul>
    308  *
    309  * <p>If the rule set is a fraction rule set, do the following:
    310  *
    311  * <ul>
    312  *   <li>Ignore negative-number and fraction rules.</li>
    313  *   <li>For each rule in the list, multiply the number being formatted (which will always be
    314  *     between 0 and 1) by the rule's base value. Keep track of the distance between the result
    315  *     the nearest integer.</li>
    316  *   <li>Use the rule that produced the result closest to zero in the above calculation. In the
    317  *     event of a tie or a direct hit, use the first matching rule encountered. (The idea here is
    318  *     to try each rule's base value as a possible denominator of a fraction. Whichever
    319  *     denominator produces the fraction closest in value to the number being formatted wins.) If
    320  *     the rule following the matching rule has the same base value, use it if the numerator of
    321  *     the fraction is anything other than 1; if the numerator is 1, use the original matching
    322  *     rule. (This is to allow singular and plural forms of the rule text without a lot of extra
    323  *     hassle.)</li>
    324  * </ul>
    325  *
    326  * <p>A rule's body consists of a string of characters terminated by a semicolon. The rule
    327  * may include zero, one, or two <em>substitution tokens,</em> and a range of text in
    328  * brackets. The brackets denote optional text (and may also include one or both
    329  * substitutions). The exact meanings of the substitution tokens, and under what conditions
    330  * optional text is omitted, depend on the syntax of the substitution token and the context.
    331  * The rest of the text in a rule body is literal text that is output when the rule matches
    332  * the number being formatted.</p>
    333  *
    334  * <p>A substitution token begins and ends with a <em>token character.</em> The token
    335  * character and the context together specify a mathematical operation to be performed on the
    336  * number being formatted. An optional <em>substitution descriptor </em>specifies how the

    497  * <p><b>Localizations</b></p>
    498  * <p>Constructors are available that allow the specification of localizations for the
    499  * public rule sets (and also allow more control over what public rule sets are available).
    500  * Localization data is represented as a textual description.  The description represents
    501  * an array of arrays of string.  The first element is an array of the public rule set names,
    502  * each of these must be one of the public rule set names that appear in the rules.  Only
    503  * names in this array will be treated as public rule set names by the API.  Each subsequent
    504  * element is an array of localizations of these names.  The first element of one of these
    505  * subarrays is the locale name, and the remaining elements are localizations of the
    506  * public rule set names, in the same order as they were listed in the first arrray.</p>
    507  * <p>In the syntax, angle brackets '<', '>' are used to delimit the arrays, and comma ',' is used
    508  * to separate elements of an array.  Whitespace is ignored, unless quoted.</p>
    509  * <p>For example:<pre>
    510  * < < %foo, %bar, %baz >,
    511  *   < en, Foo, Bar, Baz >,
