Upwork Simple Date Format

Instead of:

SimpleDateFormat formatter =

  new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yy");

String dateString = formatter.format(new Date());

Use:

DateFormat df = DateFormat.getDateInstance(

  DateFormat.SHORT, getUserLocale());

String dateString = formatter.format(new Date());

Upwork Float Parsing

For example, instead of: double myDouble = Double.parseDouble(myDecimalString);

Use:

double myDouble = 0;

//Retrieve the runtime user's locale Locale locale = getUserLocale();

//Now call the NumberFormat factory method //and pass the locale object NumberFormat f = NumberFormat.getInstance(locale);

//If it is in fact an instance of DecimalFormat, //cast it as such and use it as needed if (f instanceof DecimalFormat) {

   try {
       myDouble = ((DecimalFormat) f).parse(myDecimalString).doubleValue();
   } catch (ParseException e) {}

Upwork Currency

Instead of: NumberFormat formatter =

  NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();

Use:

//Retrieve the user's locale Locale locale = getUserLocale(); NumberFormat formatter =

  NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(locale);
