ChoiceFormat is probably not what you need.
* Please use MessageFormat
* with plural arguments for proper plural selection,
* and select arguments for simple selection among a fixed set of choices!
A ChoiceFormat splits
* the real number line \htmlonly-∞ to
* +∞\endhtmlonly into two
* or more contiguous ranges. Each range is mapped to a
* string.
ChoiceFormat was originally intended
* for displaying grammatically correct
* plurals such as "There is one file." vs. "There are 2 files."
* However, plural rules for many languages
* are too complex for the capabilities of ChoiceFormat,
* and its requirement of specifying the precise rules for each message
* is unmanageable for translators.
There are two methods of defining a ChoiceFormat; 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 logically make up the
* ChoiceFormat.
Note: Typically, choice formatting is done (if done at all) via MessageFormat
* with a choice argument type,
* rather than using a stand-alone ChoiceFormat.
The pattern string defines the range boundaries and the strings for each number range. * Syntax: *
* choiceStyle = number separator message ('|' number separator message)*
* number = normal_number | ['-'] \htmlonly∞\endhtmlonly (U+221E, infinity)
* normal_number = double value (unlocalized ASCII string)
* separator = less_than | less_than_or_equal
* less_than = '<'
* less_than_or_equal = '#' | \htmlonly≤\endhtmlonly (U+2264)
* message: see {@link MessageFormat}
*
* Pattern_White_Space between syntax elements is ignored, except
* around each range's sub-message.
*
* Each numeric sub-range extends from the current range's number
* to the next range's number.
* The number itself is included in its range if a less_than_or_equal sign is used,
* and excluded from its range (and instead included in the previous range)
* if a less_than sign is used.
When a ChoiceFormat is constructed from
* arrays of numbers, closure flags and strings,
* they are interpreted just like
* the sequence of (number separator string) in an equivalent pattern string.
* closure[i]==TRUE corresponds to a less_than separator sign.
* The equivalent pattern string will be constructed automatically.
During formatting, a number is mapped to the first range * where the number is not greater than the range's upper limit. * That range's message string is returned. A NaN maps to the very first range.
* *During parsing, a range is selected for the longest match of * any range's message. That range's number is returned, ignoring the separator/closure. * Only a simple string match is performed, without parsing of arguments that * might be specified in the message strings.
* *Note that the first range's number is ignored in formatting * but may be returned from parsing.
* *Here is an example of two arrays that map the number
* 1..7 to the English day of the week abbreviations
* Sun..Sat. No closures array is given; this is the same as
* specifying all closures to be FALSE.
{1,2,3,4,5,6,7},
* {"Sun","Mon","Tue","Wed","Thur","Fri","Sat"}
*
* 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 < 1.0, x = 1.0, and x > 1.0. * (The round parentheses in the notation above indicate an exclusive boundary, * like the turned bracket in European notation: [-Inf, 1) == [-Inf, 1[ )
* * {0, 1, 1},
* {FALSE, FALSE, TRUE},
* {"no files", "one file", "many files"}
*
* Here is an example that shows formatting and parsing:
* * \code * #includeUser subclasses are not supported. While clients may write
* subclasses, such code will not necessarily work and will not be
* guaranteed to work stably from release to release.

*
* Interval 0 is special; during formatting (mapping numbers to
* strings), it also contains all numbers less than
* fChoiceLimits[0], as well as NaN values.
*
* Interval i maps to and from string fChoiceFormats[i]. When
* parsing (mapping strings to numbers), then intervals map to
* their lower limit, that is, interval i maps to fChoiceLimit[i].
*
* The intervals may be closed, half open, or open. This affects

* by fClosures[i] and fClosures[i+1]. If fClosures[i]
* is FALSE, then the value fChoiceLimits[i] is in interval i.
