¿Por qué mis decimales son comas?

Why are my decimals commas?

In some places commas are used instead of a period or point to separate the fractional part of decimal numbers. The symptom is that some GEMPACK programs use the Decimal point even though the Windows system is set to use Decimal comma.

In the United States, decimals are notated with periods (for example, 1.23), whereas most of Europe uses decimal commas (1,23). That is just one instance in which style rules in the United States clash with those in Europe.

If a number has a decimal point , then the first digit to the right of the decimal point indicates the number of tenths. For example, the decimal 0.3 is the same as the fraction 310 . The second digit to the right of the decimal point indicates the number of hundredths.

The decimal separator in Europe In most European countries, a comma is used to separate the integral part of a number from the decimal part. This means, for example, that three hundred euros and ten cents is written as 300,10—with a comma as a decimal marker.

A comma is placed every third digit to the left of the decimal point and so is used in numbers with four or more digits. Continue to place a comma after every third digit. For example: $1,000,000 (one million dollars)

Eg: Case 1 : Decimal number is 432324 (This does not have commas or decimal Points) Need to display it as 432,324.00. but not 432,324. Case 2 : Decimal number is 2222222.22 (This does not have commas) Need to display it as 2,222,222.22.

Using Commas with Numbers In countries like the US, UK, and China, commas are used with large numbers to make them easier to read. A comma is placed every 3 decimal places for numbers larger than 999. The decimal point is shown with a period (full stop).

The first ones use period, point, or dot as a decimal separator (17.96) and comma as a thousand groups delimiter (1,017.96). Others use the comma as a decimal separator (17,96) and quotation as a thousand groups delimiter (1’017,96).

In the UK, US, and China, commas are usually placed every three decimal places to the left of the decimal point to assist with reading numbers. A: True B: False
