/**
 * Formattable objects can be passed to the Format class or
 * its subclasses for formatting.  Formattable is a thin wrapper
 * class which interconverts between the primitive numeric types
 * (double, long, etc.) as well as Date and UnicodeString.
 * <P>
 * Note that this is fundamentally different from the Java behavior, since
 * in this case the various formattable objects do not occupy a hierarchy,
 * but are all wrapped within this one class.  Formattable encapsulates all
 * the polymorphism in itself.
 * <P>
 * It would be easy to change this so that Formattable was an abstract base
 * class of a genuine hierarchy, and that would clean up the code that
 * currently must explicitly check for type, but that seems like overkill at
 * this point.
