Request: information on which side of the currency should the currency symbol should be displayed

Open kunambi opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

It would be very nice/helpful if it was possible to retrieve information whether the currency symbol should be displayed on the left or right side of the value of the currency, i.e.: S$123 (Singapore Dollar, left) or 123€ (Euro, right)

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Currency_symbol, it seems that it's not a convention per symbol but rather in which language you're reading:

In formatting, the symbol can use various formattings: before, between or after the numeric amounts: €2.50, 2,50 € and 2$50, for example; this positioning is determined by national convention.
