|
The currency module defines the concepts of currency and rate.

Currency
|
||
|
|
********
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A currency is defined by a name, a symbol, a code, a list of rates, a
|
||
|
|
rounding factor and some formatting properties: the digits to be
|
||
|
|
displayed after the decimal separator, the way the numbers should be
|
||
|
|
grouped, the thousands separator, the decimal separator, the positive
|
||
|
|
and negative signs and their positions, the currency symbol position
|
||
|
|
and if it should be separated from the number by a space.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Rate
|
||
|
|
****
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A rate is defined by a date and a numeric value. The date gives the
|
||
|
|
time from which this rate is correct. All rates are defined implicitly
|
||
|
|
with respect to the same currency (the one whose rate is 1).
