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?
