+          Natural numbers (i.e. Integer, Long, BigInteger) can also be expressed as octal or hexadecimal using the same format as Java.
+          i.e. prefix the number with <code>0</code> for octal, and prefix with <code>0x</code> or <code>0X</code> for hexadecimal.
+          For example <code>010</code> or <code>0x10</code>.

+          Real numbers (i.e. Float, Double, BigDecimal) can also be expressed using standard Java exponent notation.
+          i.e. suffix the number with <code>e</code> or <code>E</code> followed by the sign <code>+</code> or <code>-</code>
+          followed by one or more decimal digits.
