comments].
That was my understanding from the beginning and I commented accordingly
in the PR. Sorry for not being clear about that here.
> However, both docs and comments mention that for **monetary values**
format is different. The question is, should we change a comment to the:
> > "For monetary numbers, the DECIMAL_SEPARATOR is a . (decimal point)
and the THOUSAND_SEPARATOR is **a , (comma).**"
> or should we change docs to the:
> > "For monetary values, a **single quote** is used as the thousand
separator and a decimal point for the decimal separator."
Here I disagree, because from what I read in the referred official
document there is **no special thousand separator for monetary values**.
So my suggestion in the PR was to change the comment (and docs) to:
> "For monetary numbers, the DECIMAL_SEPARATOR is a . (decimal point)."
But maybe others can point me to the definition of a special thousand
separator for monetary values in the referred document? I wasn't able to
find one skimming the doc.
