45 /**
46  * ChoiceFormat converts between ranges of numeric values and strings for those ranges.
47  * The strings must conform to the MessageFormat pattern syntax.
48  *
49  * <p><em><code>ChoiceFormat</code> is probably not what you need.
50  * Please use <code>MessageFormat</code>
51  * with <code>plural</code> arguments for proper plural selection,
52  * and <code>select</code> arguments for simple selection among a fixed set of choices!</em></p>
53  *
54  * <p>A <code>ChoiceFormat</code> splits
55  * the real number line \htmlonly<code>-&#x221E;</code> to
56  * <code>+&#x221E;</code>\endhtmlonly into two
57  * or more contiguous ranges. Each range is mapped to a
58  * string.</p>
59  *
60  * <p><code>ChoiceFormat</code> was originally intended
61  * for displaying grammatically correct
62  * plurals such as &quot;There is one file.&quot; vs. &quot;There are 2 files.&quot;
63  * <em>However,</em> plural rules for many languages
64  * are too complex for the capabilities of ChoiceFormat,
65  * and its requirement of specifying the precise rules for each message
66  * is unmanageable for translators.</p>
67  *
68  * <p>There are two methods of defining a <code>ChoiceFormat</code>; both
69  * are equivalent.  The first is by using a string pattern. This is the
70  * preferred method in most cases.  The second method is through direct
71  * specification of the arrays that logically make up the
72  * <code>ChoiceFormat</code>.</p>
73  *
74  * <p>Note: Typically, choice formatting is done (if done at all) via <code>MessageFormat</code>
75  * with a <code>choice</code> argument type,
76  * rather than using a stand-alone <code>ChoiceFormat</code>.</p>
77  *
78  * <h5>Patterns and Their Interpretation</h5>
79  *
80  * <p>The pattern string defines the range boundaries and the strings for each number range.
81  * Syntax:
82  * <pre>
83  * choiceStyle = number separator message ('|' number separator message)*
84  * number = normal_number | ['-'] \htmlonly&#x221E;\endhtmlonly (U+221E, infinity)
85  * normal_number = double value (unlocalized ASCII string)
86  * separator = less_than | less_than_or_equal
87  * less_than = '<'
88  * less_than_or_equal = '#' | \htmlonly&#x2264;\endhtmlonly (U+2264)
89  * message: see {@link MessageFormat}
90  * </pre>
91  * Pattern_White_Space between syntax elements is ignored, except
92  * around each range's sub-message.</p>
93  *
94  * <p>Each numeric sub-range extends from the current range's number
95  * to the next range's number.
96  * The number itself is included in its range if a <code>less_than_or_equal</code> sign is used,
97  * and excluded from its range (and instead included in the previous range)
98  * if a <code>less_than</code> sign is used.</p>
99  *
100  * <p>When a <code>ChoiceFormat</code> is constructed from
101  * arrays of numbers, closure flags and strings,
102  * they are interpreted just like
103  * the sequence of <code>(number separator string)</code> in an equivalent pattern string.
104  * <code>closure[i]==TRUE</code> corresponds to a <code>less_than</code> separator sign.
105  * The equivalent pattern string will be constructed automatically.</p>
106  *
107  * <p>During formatting, a number is mapped to the first range
108  * where the number is not greater than the range's upper limit.
109  * That range's message string is returned. A NaN maps to the very first range.</p>
110  *
111  * <p>During parsing, a range is selected for the longest match of
112  * any range's message. That range's number is returned, ignoring the separator/closure.
113  * Only a simple string match is performed, without parsing of arguments that
114  * might be specified in the message strings.</p>
115  *
116  * <p>Note that the first range's number is ignored in formatting
117  * but may be returned from parsing.</p>
118  *
119  * <h5>Examples</h5>
120  *
121  * <p>Here is an example of two arrays that map the number
122  * <code>1..7</code> to the English day of the week abbreviations
123  * <code>Sun..Sat</code>. No closures array is given; this is the same as
124  * specifying all closures to be <code>FALSE</code>.</p>
125  *
126  * <pre>    {1,2,3,4,5,6,7},
127  *     {&quot;Sun&quot;,&quot;Mon&quot;,&quot;Tue&quot;,&quot;Wed&quot;,&quot;Thur&quot;,&quot;Fri&quot;,&quot;Sat&quot;}</pre>
128  *
129  * <p>Here is an example that maps the ranges [-Inf, 1), [1, 1], and (1,
130  * +Inf] to three strings. That is, the number line is split into three
131  * ranges: x &lt; 1.0, x = 1.0, and x &gt; 1.0.
132  * (The round parentheses in the notation above indicate an exclusive boundary,
133  * like the turned bracket in European notation: [-Inf, 1) == [-Inf, 1[  )</p>
134  *
135  * <pre>    {0, 1, 1},
136  *     {FALSE, FALSE, TRUE},
137  *     {&quot;no files&quot;, &quot;one file&quot;, &quot;many files&quot;}</pre>
138  *

149  *           "Sun","Mon","Tue","Wed","Thu","Fri","Sat"};
150  *       ChoiceFormat fmt(limits, monthNames, 7);
151  *       UnicodeString str;
152  *       char buf[256];
153  *       for (double x = 1.0; x <= 8.0; x += 1.0) {
154  *           fmt.format(x, str);
155  *           str.extract(0, str.length(), buf, 256, "");
156  *           str.truncate(0);
157  *           cout << x << " -> "

628      *  fCount-1: fChoiceLimits[fCount-1]..+Inf
629      *
630      * Interval 0 is special; during formatting (mapping numbers to
631      * strings), it also contains all numbers less than
632      * fChoiceLimits[0], as well as NaN values.
633      *
634      * Interval i maps to and from string fChoiceFormats[i].  When
635      * parsing (mapping strings to numbers), then intervals map to
636      * their lower limit, that is, interval i maps to fChoiceLimit[i].
637      *
638      * The intervals may be closed, half open, or open.  This affects
639      * formatting but does not affect parsing.  Interval i is affected
640      * by fClosures[i] and fClosures[i+1].  If fClosures[i]
641      * is FALSE, then the value fChoiceLimits[i] is in interval i.
642      * That is, intervals i and i are:
643      *
644      *  i-1:                 ... x < fChoiceLimits[i]
645      *    i: fChoiceLimits[i] <= x ...
646      *
647      * If fClosures[i] is TRUE, then the value fChoiceLimits[i] is
648      * in interval i-1.  That is, intervals i-1 and i are:
649      *

651      *    i: fChoiceLimits[i] < x ...
652      *
