 * Serves to isolate the interface of String formatting from the actual implementation.
 * If you want to plug in a different String formatting implementation, simply replace this class with your alternative.

/**
 * Constructs and returns a new format instance.

 * The string has a prefix, a format code and a suffix. The prefix and suffix
 * become part of the formatted output. The format code directs the
 * formatting of the (single) parameter to be formatted. The code has the
 * following structure
 * 
 *  a % (required)
 * 
 a modifier (optional)
 * 
 *  + 
 forces display of + for positive numbers
 * 
 0 
 show leading zeroes
 * 
 - 
 align left in the field
 * 
 space 
 prepend a space in front of positive numbers
 * 
 # 
 use "alternate" format. Add 0 or 0x for octal or hexadecimal numbers. Don't suppress trailing zeroes in general floating point format.
 * 
 * 
 an integer denoting field width (optional)
 * 
 a period followed by an integer denoting precision (optional)
 * 
 a format descriptor (required)
 * 
 * f 
 floating point number in fixed format
 * 
e, E 
 floating point number in exponential notation (scientific format). The E format results in an uppercase E for the exponent (1.14130E+003), the e format in a lowercase e.
 * 
g, G 
 floating point number in general format (fixed format for small numbers, exponential format for large numbers). Trailing zeroes are suppressed. The G format results in an uppercase E for the exponent (if any), the g format in a lowercase e.
 * 
d, i 
 integer in decimal
 * 
x 
 integer in hexadecimal
 * 
o 
 integer in octal
 *

 string

c 
 character
