localeconv returns data based upon the current locale
as set by setlocale. The associative array that is
returned contains the following fields:
Array element
Description
decimal_point
Decimal point character
thousands_sep
Thousands separator
grouping
Array containing numeric groupings
int_curr_symbol
International currency symbol (i.e. USD)
currency_symbol
Local currency symbol (i.e. $)
mon_decimal_point
Monetary decimal point character
mon_thousands_sep
Monetary thousands separator
mon_grouping
Array containing monetary groupings
positive_sign
Sign for positive values
negative_sign
Sign for negative values
int_frac_digits
International fractional digits
frac_digits
Local fractional digits
p_cs_precedes
true if currency_symbol precedes a positive value, false
if it succeeds one
p_sep_by_space
true if a space separates currency_symbol from a positive
value, false otherwise
n_cs_precedes
true if currency_symbol precedes a negative value, false
if it succeeds one
n_sep_by_space
true if a space separates currency_symbol from a negative
value, false otherwise
p_sign_posn
0 - Parentheses surround the quantity and currency_symbol
1 - The sign string precedes the quantity and currency_symbol
2 - The sign string succeeds the quantity and currency_symbol
3 - The sign string immediately precedes the currency_symbol
4 - The sign string immediately succeeds the currency_symbol
n_sign_posn
0 - Parentheses surround the quantity and currency_symbol
1 - The sign string precedes the quantity and currency_symbol
2 - The sign string succeeds the quantity and currency_symbol
3 - The sign string immediately precedes the currency_symbol
4 - The sign string immediately succeeds the currency_symbol
The p_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.
