## Detailed Description

A formatter that formats numbers in user-friendly scientific notation.

Sample code:

    UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
    LocalPointer<ScientificNumberFormatter> fmt(
            ScientificNumberFormatter::createMarkupInstance(
                    "en", "<sup>", "</sup>", status));
    if (U_FAILURE(status)) {
        return;
    }
    UnicodeString appendTo;
    // appendTo = "1.23456x10<sup>-78</sup>"
    fmt->format(1.23456e-78, appendTo, status);
