*
 * X matches j if and only if limit[j] <= X < limit[j+1]
 * 
*
* If there is no match, then either the first or last index is used, depending * on whether the number (X) is too low or too high. If the limit array is not * in ascending order, the results of formatting will be incorrect. ChoiceFormat * also accepts \u221E as equivalent to infinity(INF). * *

* Note: * ChoiceFormat differs from the other Format * classes in that you create a ChoiceFormat object with a * constructor (not with a getInstance style factory * method). The factory methods aren't necessary because ChoiceFormat * doesn't require any complex setup for a given locale. In fact, * ChoiceFormat doesn't implement any locale specific behavior. * *

* When creating a ChoiceFormat, you must specify an array of formats * and an array of limits. The length of these arrays must be the same. * For example, *

    *
  • * limits = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7}
    * formats = {"Sun","Mon","Tue","Wed","Thur","Fri","Sat"} *
  • * limits = {0, 1, ChoiceFormat.nextDouble(1)}
    * formats = {"no files", "one file", "many files"}
    * (nextDouble can be used to get the next higher double, to * make the half-open interval.) *
* *

* Here is a simple example that shows formatting and parsing: *

*
 * double[] limits = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7};
 * String[] monthNames = {"Sun","Mon","Tue","Wed","Thur","Fri","Sat"};
 * ChoiceFormat form = new ChoiceFormat(limits, monthNames);
 * ParsePosition status = new ParsePosition(0);
 * for (double i = 0.0; i <= 8.0; ++i) {
 *     status.setIndex(0);
 *     System.out.println(i + " -> " + form.format(i) + " -> "
 *                              + form.parse(form.format(i),status));
 * }
 * 
*
* Here is a more complex example, with a pattern format: *
*
 * double[] filelimits = {0,1,2};
 * String[] filepart = {"are no files","is one file","are {2} files"};
 * ChoiceFormat fileform = new ChoiceFormat(filelimits, filepart);
 * Format[] testFormats = {fileform, null, NumberFormat.getInstance()};
 * MessageFormat pattform = new MessageFormat("There {0} on {1}");
 * pattform.setFormats(testFormats);
 * Object[] testArgs = {null, "ADisk", null};
 * for (int i = 0; i < 4; ++i) {
 *     testArgs[0] = new Integer(i);
 *     testArgs[2] = testArgs[0];
 *     System.out.println(pattform.format(testArgs));
 * }
 * 
*
*

* Specifying a pattern for ChoiceFormat objects is fairly straightforward. * For example: *

*
 * ChoiceFormat fmt = new ChoiceFormat(
 *      "-1#is negative| 0#is zero or fraction | 1#is one |1.0<is 1+ |2#is two |2<is more than 2.");
 * System.out.println("Formatter Pattern : " + fmt.toPattern());
 *
 * System.out.println("Format with -INF : " + fmt.format(Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY));
 * System.out.println("Format with -1.0 : " + fmt.format(-1.0));
 * System.out.println("Format with 0 : " + fmt.format(0));
 * System.out.println("Format with 0.9 : " + fmt.format(0.9));
 * System.out.println("Format with 1.0 : " + fmt.format(1));
 * System.out.println("Format with 1.5 : " + fmt.format(1.5));
 * System.out.println("Format with 2 : " + fmt.format(2));
 * System.out.println("Format with 2.1 : " + fmt.format(2.1));
 * System.out.println("Format with NaN : " + fmt.format(Double.NaN));
 * System.out.println("Format with +INF : " + fmt.format(Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY));
 * 
*
* And the output result would be like the following: *
 * 
* Format with -INF : is negative * Format with -1.0 : is negative * Format with 0 : is zero or fraction * Format with 0.9 : is zero or fraction * Format with 1.0 : is one * Format with 1.5 : is 1+ * Format with 2 : is two * Format with 2.1 : is more than 2. * Format with NaN : is negative * Format with +INF : is more than 2. *
* * *
