* "one: n is 1; few: n in 2..4"* This defines two rules, for 'one' and 'few'. The condition for * 'one' is "n is 1" which means that the number must be equal to * 1 for this condition to pass. The condition for 'few' is * "n in 2..4" which means that the number must be between 2 and * 4 inclusive for this condition to pass. All other numbers * are assigned the keyword "other" by the default rule. *
* "zero: n is 0; one: n is 1; zero: n mod 100 in 1..19"* This illustrates that the same keyword can be defined multiple times. * Each rule is examined in order, and the first keyword whose condition * passes is the one returned. Also notes that a modulus is applied * to n in the last rule. Thus its condition holds for 119, 219, 319... *
* "one: n is 1; few: n mod 10 in 2..4 and n mod 100 not in 12..14"* This illustrates conjunction and negation. The condition for 'few' * has two parts, both of which must be met: "n mod 10 in 2..4" and * "n mod 100 not in 12..14". The first part applies a modulus to n * before the test as in the previous example. The second part applies * a different modulus and also uses negation, thus it matches all * numbers _not_ in 12, 13, 14, 112, 113, 114, 212, 213, 214... * *
* Syntax:
* \code
* rules = rule (';' rule)*
* rule = keyword ':' condition
* keyword =
* condition = and_condition ('or' and_condition)*
* and_condition = relation ('and' relation)*
* relation = is_relation | in_relation | within_relation | 'n'
* is_relation = expr 'is' ('not')? value
* in_relation = expr ('not')? 'in' range_list
* within_relation = expr ('not')? 'within' range
* expr = ('n' | 'i' | 'f' | 'v' | 'j') ('mod' value)?
* range_list = (range | value) (',' range_list)*
* value = digit+ ('.' digit+)?
* digit = 0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9
* range = value'..'value
* \endcode
*
* *
* The i, f, and v values are defined as follows: *
** Examples are in the following table: *
*| n | *i | *f | *v | *
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.0 | *1 | *0 | *1 | *
| 1.00 | *1 | *0 | *2 | *
| 1.3 | *1 | *3 | *1 | *
| 1.03 | *1 | *3 | *2 | *
| 1.23 | *1 | *23 | *2 | *
* The difference between 'in' and 'within' is that 'in' only includes integers in the specified range, while 'within' * includes all values. Using 'within' with a range_list consisting entirely of values is the same as using 'in' (it's * not an error). *
* An "identifier" is a sequence of characters that do not have the * Unicode Pattern_Syntax or Pattern_White_Space properties. ** The difference between 'in' and 'within' is that 'in' only includes * integers in the specified range, while 'within' includes all values. * Using 'within' with a range_list consisting entirely of values is the * same as using 'in' (it's not an error). *
** Keywords * could be defined by users or from ICU locale data. There are 6 * predefined values in ICU - 'zero', 'one', 'two', 'few', 'many' and * 'other'. Callers need to check the value of keyword returned by * {@link #select} method. *
* * Examples:
* UnicodeString keyword = pl->select(number);
* if (keyword== UnicodeString("one") {
* ...
* }
* else if ( ... )
*
* Note:* ICU defines plural rules for many locales based on CLDR Language Plural Rules. * For these predefined rules, see CLDR page at * http://unicode.org/repos/cldr-tmp/trunk/diff/supplemental/language_plural_rules.html *
