    Hi,
    
    I’m currently working though some of the examples and encountered a problem:
    
    Code like this:
    nextValue = Double.valueOf(df.format(nextValue));
    
    Seems to not work correctly in Germany as we have a “,” as decimal 
separator and “.” as grouping character.
    This results numbers like “10,3” being passed into Double.valueOf which 
causes exceptions.
    
    If I change it to this:
    
    try {
        nextValue = df.parse(df.format(nextValue)).doubleValue();
    } catch (ParseException e) {
        // Ignore ...
    }
    
    It seems to do what the original codes intention was.
    
    What would be the cleanest way to solve this problem?
    
    Chris
