Uses of Number in java.text

Methods in java.text that return Number
`Number` | `NumberFormat.parse(String source)` Parses text from the beginning of the given string to produce a number.
`abstract Number` | `NumberFormat.parse(String source, ParsePosition parsePosition)` Returns a Long if possible (e.g., within the range [Long.MIN_VALUE, Long.MAX_VALUE] and with no decimals), otherwise a Double.
`Number` | `DecimalFormat.parse(String text, ParsePosition pos)` Parses text from a string to produce a `Number`.
`Number` | `ChoiceFormat.parse(String text, ParsePosition status)` Parses a Number from the input text.
