Description
array
localeconv ( void )
Returns an associative array containing localized numeric and
monetary formatting information.
localeconv() returns data based upon the current locale
as set by setlocale(). The associative array that is
returned contains the following fields:
The n_sign_posn, and n_sign_posn contain a string
of formatting options. Each number representing one of the above listed conditions.
The grouping fields contain arrays that define the way numbers should be
grouped. For example, the monetary grouping field for the nl_NL locale (in
UTF-8 mode with the euro sign), would contain a 2 item array with the
values 3 and 3. The higher the index in the array, the farther left the
grouping is. If an array element is equal to CHAR_MAX,
no further grouping is done. If an array element is equal to 0, the previous
element should be used.
Example 1. localeconv() example
<?php
if (false !== setlocale(LC_ALL, 'nl_NL.UTF-8@euro')) {
$locale_info = localeconv();
print_r($locale_info);
}
?>
|
The above example will output: Array
(
[decimal_point] => .
[thousands_sep] =>
[int_curr_symbol] => EUR
[currency_symbol] => €
[mon_decimal_point] => ,
[mon_thousands_sep] =>
[positive_sign] =>
[negative_sign] => -
[int_frac_digits] => 2
[frac_digits] => 2
[p_cs_precedes] => 1
[p_sep_by_space] => 1
[n_cs_precedes] => 1
[n_sep_by_space] => 1
[p_sign_posn] => 1
[n_sign_posn] => 2
[grouping] => Array
