Every class has the <code>out</code> method that can be used to get a text version of the object. For a lot of class, this method return internal informations that are not really useful for the end user. But for every <code>NUMERIC</code> class, the <code>out</code> method return a text representation of the number that the <code>NUMERIC</code> object represents.
