Java : NumberFormat with Examples

NumberFormat (Java SE 24 & JDK 24) in Java with Examples.
You will find code samples for most of the NumberFormat methods.

Summary

NumberFormat is the abstract base class for all number formats. This class provides the interface for formatting and parsing numbers in a localized manner.

} catch (ParseException e) {
    System.out.println(e);
}

// Result
// ↓
//java.text.ParseException: Unparseable number: "75%"
