* Format a floating point number in a reasonable way. <br>
* I've experienced problems with the %g conversions that caused array bounds violations. Those versions of the JRE that do
* <b>not</b> throw such Exceptions use one digit less than specified in the %g conversions. <br >
* TODO check how to always format numbers corresponding to the Locale used.
