Class CompactNumberFormatExamples

java.lang.Object
net.jrodolfo.java_evolution.java12.CompactNumberFormatExamples
public class CompactNumberFormatExamples extends Object
Demonstrates compact number formatting, introduced in Java 12.

Before Java 12, displaying large numbers in user-friendly forms such as 1K, 1M, or localized long text usually required custom formatting logic or a third-party library.

Java 12 added compact number formatting to NumberFormat. It solves this presentation problem with locale-aware short and long styles.
