Cédric Krier added the comment: I think PR-15275 will solves this issue also as you could use: >>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'fr_FR') >>> locale.localize('{:.2f}'.format(1.891)) '1,89' -- nosy: +ced ___ Python tracker

James Emerton added the comment: @rhettinger See #34311 about formatting Decimals using locale.format(). I'd like to see the problem fixed in one place or the other. Also, this is seems relatively straightforward to implement as it's really just a combination of the fixed precision 'f' and

[issue33731] string formatting that produces floats with preset precision while respecting locale

New submission from Jakub Szewczyk : .2f produces a string representation of a float rounded up to 2 significant digits. >>> print ("{:.2f}".format(1.891)) 1.89 However, it does not respect locale. There is no counterpart of 'f' that would respect locale. There is 'n', but because it
