class MessageFormat;
/**
* ChoiceFormat converts between ranges of numeric values
* and string names for those ranges. A <code>ChoiceFormat</code> splits
* the real number line <code>-Inf</code> to <code>+Inf</code> into two
* or more contiguous ranges. Each range is mapped to a
* string. <code>ChoiceFormat</code> is generally used in a
* <code>MessageFormat</code> for displaying grammatically correct
* plurals such as &quot;There are 2 files.&quot;</p>
*
* <p>There are two methods of defining a <code>ChoiceFormat</code>; both
* are equivalent. The first is by using a string pattern. This is the
* preferred method in most cases. The second method is through direct
* specification of the arrays that make up the
* <code>ChoiceFormat</code>.</p>
*
* <p><strong>Patterns</strong></p>
*
* <p>In most cases, the preferred way to define a
* <code>ChoiceFormat</code> is with a pattern. Here is an example of a
* <code>ChoiceFormat</code> pattern:</p>
*
* \htmlonly<pre> 0&#x2264;are no files|1&#x2264;is one file|1&lt;are many files</pre>\endhtmlonly
*
* <p>or equivalently,</p>
*
* \htmlonly<pre> 0#are no files|1#is one file|1&lt;are many files</pre>\endhtmlonly
*
* <p>The pattern consists of a number or <em>range specifiers</em>
* separated by vertical bars '|' (U+007C). There is no
* vertical bar after the last range. Each range specifier is of the
* form:</p>
*
* \htmlonly<blockquote><em>Number Separator String</em></blockquote>\endhtmlonly
*
* <p><em>Number</em> is a floating point number that can be parsed by a
* default <code>NumberFormat</code> for the US locale. It gives the
* lower limit of this range. The lower limit is either inclusive or
* exclusive, depending on the <em>separator</em>. The upper limit is
* given by the lower limit of the next range. The Unicode infinity
* sign \htmlonly&#x221E \endhtmlonly (U+221E) is recognized for positive infinity. It may be preceded by
* '-' (U+002D) to indicate negative infinity.</p>
*
* <p><em>String</em> is the format string for this range, with special
* characters enclosed in single quotes (<code>'The #
* sign'</code>). Single quotes themselves are indicated by two single
* quotes in a row (<code>'o''clock'</code>).</p>
*
* <p><em>Separator</em> is one of the following single characters:
*
* <ul>
* <li>\htmlonly'&#x2264;' \endhtmlonly (U+2264) or '#' (U+0023)
* indicates that the lower limit given by <em>Number</em> is
* inclusive. (The two characters are equivalent to ChoiceFormat.)
* This means that the limit value <em>Number</em> belongs to this
* range. Another way of saying this is that the corresponding
* closure is <code>FALSE</code>.</li>
*
* <li>'<' (U+003C) indicates that the lower limit given by
* <em>Number</em> is exclusive. This means that the value
* <em>Number</em> belongs to the prior range.</li> Another way of
* saying this is that the corresponding closure is
* <code>TRUE</code>.
* </ul>
*
* <p>See below for more information about closures.</p>
*
* <p><strong>Arrays</strong></p>
*
* <p>A <code>ChoiceFormat</code> defining <code>n</code> intervals
* (<code>n</code> &gt;= 2) is specified by three arrays of
* <code>n</code> items:
*
* <ul>
* <li><code>double limits[]</code> gives the start of each
* interval. This must be a non-decreasing list of values, none of
* which may be <code>NaN</code>.</li>
* <li><code>UBool closures[]</code> determines whether each limit
* value is contained in the interval below it or in the interval
* above it. If <code>closures[i]</code> is <code>FALSE</code>, then
* <code>limits[i]</code> is a member of interval
* <code>i</code>. Otherwise it is a member of interval
* <code>i+1</code>. If no closures array is specified, this is
* equivalent to having all closures be <code>FALSE</code>. Closures
* allow one to specify half-open, open, or closed intervals.</li>
* <li><code>UnicodeString formats[]</code> gives the string label
* associated with each interval.</li>
* </ul>
*
* <p><strong>Formatting and Parsing</strong></p>
*
* <p>During formatting, a number is converted to a
* string. <code>ChoiceFormat</code> accomplishes this by mapping the
* number to an interval using the following rule. Given a number
* <code>X</code> and and index value <code>j</code> in the range
* <code>0..n-1</code>, where <code>n</code> is the number of ranges:</p>
*
* \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly<code>X</code> matches <code>j</code> if and only if
* <code>limit[j] &lt;= X &lt; limit[j+1]</code>
* \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
*
* <p>(This assumes that all closures are <code>FALSE</code>. If some
* closures are <code>TRUE</code> then the relations must be changed to
* <code>&lt;=</code> or <code>&lt;</code> as appropriate.) If there is
* no match, then either the first or last index is used, depending on
* whether the number is too low or too high. Once a number is mapped to
* an interval <code>j</code>, the string <code>formats[j]</code> is
* output.</p>
*
* <p>During parsing, a string is converted to a
* number. <code>ChoiceFormat</code> finds the element
* <code>formats[j]</code> equal to the string, and returns
* <code>limits[j]</code> as the parsed value.</p>
*
* <p><strong>Notes</strong></p>
*
* <p>The first limit value does not define a range boundary. For
* example, in the pattern \htmlonly&quot;<code>1.0#a|2.0#b</code>&quot;\endhtmlonly, the
* intervals are [-Inf, 2.0) and [2.0, +Inf]. It appears that the first
* interval should be [1.0, 2.0). However, since all values that are too
* small are mapped to range zero, the first interval is effectively
* [-Inf, 2.0). However, the first limit value <em>is</em> used during
* formatting. In this example, <code>parse(&quot;a&quot;)</code> returns
* 1.0.</p>
*
* <p>There are no gaps between intervals and the entire number line is
* covered. A <code>ChoiceFormat</code> maps <em>all</em> possible
* double values to a finite set of intervals.</p>
*
* <p>The non-number <code>NaN</code> is mapped to interval zero during
* formatting.</p>
*
* <p><strong>Examples</strong></p>
*
* <p>Here is an example of two arrays that map the number
* <code>1..7</code> to the English day of the week abbreviations
* <code>Sun..Sat</code>. No closures array is given; this is the same as
* specifying all closures to be <code>FALSE</code>.</p>
*
* <pre> {1,2,3,4,5,6,7},
* {&quot;Sun&quot;,&quot;Mon&quot;,&quot;Tue&quot;,&quot;Wed&quot;,&quot;Thur&quot;,&quot;Fri&quot;,&quot;Sat&quot;}</pre>
*
* <p>Here is an example that maps the ranges [-Inf, 1), [1, 1], and (1,
* +Inf] to three strings. That is, the number line is split into three
* ranges: x &lt; 1.0, x = 1.0, and x &gt; 1.0.</p>
*
* <pre> {0, 1, 1},
* {FALSE, FALSE, TRUE},
* {&quot;no files&quot;, &quot;one file&quot;, &quot;many files&quot;}</pre>
*
* <p>Here is a simple example that shows formatting and parsing: </p>
*
* \code
* #include <unicode/choicfmt.h>
* #include <unicode/unistr.h>
* #include <iostream.h>
*
* int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
* double limits[] = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7};
* UnicodeString monthNames[] = {
* "Sun","Mon","Tue","Wed","Thu","Fri","Sat"};
* ChoiceFormat fmt(limits, monthNames, 7);
* UnicodeString str;
* char buf[256];
* for (double x = 1.0; x <= 8.0; x += 1.0) {
* fmt.format(x, str);
* str.extract(0, str.length(), buf, 256, "");
* str.truncate(0);
* cout << x << " -> "
* << buf << endl;
* }
* cout << endl;
* return 0;
* }
* \endcode
*
* <p>Here is a more complex example using a <code>ChoiceFormat</code>
* constructed from a pattern together with a
* <code>MessageFormat</code>.</p>
*
* \code
* #include <unicode/choicfmt.h>
* #include <unicode/msgfmt.h>
* #include <unicode/unistr.h>
* #include <iostream.h>
*
* int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
* UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
* double filelimits[] = {0,1,2};
* UnicodeString filepart[] =
* {"are no files","is one file","are {0} files"};
* ChoiceFormat* fileform = new ChoiceFormat(filelimits, filepart, 3 );
* Format* testFormats[] =
* {fileform, NULL, NumberFormat::createInstance(status)};
* MessageFormat pattform("There {0} on {1}", status );
* pattform.adoptFormats(testFormats, 3);
* Formattable testArgs[] = {0L, "Disk A"};
* FieldPosition fp(0);
* UnicodeString str;
* char buf[256];
* for (int32_t i = 0; i < 4; ++i) {
* Formattable fInt(i);
* testArgs[0] = fInt;
* pattform.format(testArgs, 2, str, fp, status );
* str.extract(0, str.length(), buf, "");
* str.truncate(0);
* cout << "Output for i=" << i << " : " << buf << endl;
* }
* cout << endl;
* return 0;
* }
* \endcode
*
* <p><em>User subclasses are not supported.</em> While clients may write
* subclasses, such code will not necessarily work and will not be
* guaranteed to work stably from release to release.
