Default custom formatting

I have never really understood how the custom formatting works with basic
numbers. Can anyone explain (or point me to somewhere that explains what
things like the following "language" are are saying:

_($* #,##0_);_($* (#,##0);_($* "-"??_);_(@_)

this is just an example, but I'd like to be able to understand them all.
Thanks.
