In this challenge, you will apply what you have learned about the `DecimalFormat` class to format both invoice numbers and monetary amounts for a list of invoices. Your goal is to produce output where each invoice appears as `"Invoice #XXXX: $X,XXX.XX"`, with the invoice number zero-padded to four digits and the amount formatted with grouping separators and exactly two decimal places. This task will help you practice combining number formatting patterns for both integers and floating-point values, and reinforce your understanding of grouping, padding, and currency display.
