Currency

JMP displays numbers as currency using the Format() function, which uses the following syntax:

Format(x,"Currency", <"currency code">, <decimal>, < << Use Locale(Boolean));

Where:

• x is a column or a number

• "currency code" is an International Standards Organization (ISO) 4217 code

• decimal is the number of decimal places

To illustrate the Format function:

Format( 12345.6, "Currency", "GBP", 3 );

"£12,345.600"

By default, the operating system locale is used for the currency if the currency code symbol is omitted. For example, running the following script in a Japanese operating system formats the number with the yen symbol.

Format( 12345.6, "Currency", 3);

"¥12,345.600"

To ignore the computer’s locale and use a period for the decimal separator, include the Use Locale(0) argument:

Format( 12345.6, "Currency", 3, <<Use Locale( 0 ) );

Tip: If you change the region when JMP is open, restart JMP for the Use Locale setting to work properly.

If the currency code is not supported by JMP, the currency code string appears before the number.

Format( 12345.6, "Currency", "BBD", 3 );

"BBD 12,345.600"

Table 6.5 lists the currencies supported in JMP.

For more information about how to format currency, see Format(x, width|<width, decimal places>, <"Use thousands separator">) in the JSL Syntax Reference.
