Name | Meaning |
---|---|
amount, Amount, or the first unnamed parameter |
The value to format as a currency number. The value may contain one decimal separator, which must be a period (example:12345.6). The value should not contain group separators (commas or spaces). |
type, Type, or the second unnamed parameter |
The type of currency to format the value as. Most currencies are available through the use of the appropriate ISO 4217 currency code. Some of the more popular currencies are also available by using the full name or popular abbreviations. The default value is to format the value as the United States dollar (US$). Type values are case insensitive (example: "JPY" and "jpy" give the same result). |
first | if this parameter is present, with any value given, then the template will return a <value> <currency name> pair instead of the normal <linked symbol><value> pair. This is provided to comply with the Manual of Style — Dates and Numbers — Currencies, which states "Link the first occurrence of lesser-known currencies (Mongolian tögrögs)". |
Examples
തിരുത്തുകCurrencies other than the United States dollar can be found by using the appropriate ISO 4217 currency code
- {{Currency|1000|BMD}} gives: BD$1,000 for the Bermudian dollar
- {{Currency|1000|BDT}} gives: ৳1,000 for the Bangladeshi taka
- {{Currency|1000|AMD}} gives: դր.1,000 for the Armenian dram
Some of the more well known currencies also provide the ability to use common abbreviations or full names.
- {{Currency|1000|US}} gives: US$1,000
- {{Currency|1000|United States}} gives: US$1,000
- {{Currency|1000|JPY}} gives: ¥1,000
Parameter names can also be used, if preferred:
- {{Currency|amount=1000|type=US}} gives: US$1,000
- {{Currency|1000|type=us}} gives: US$1,000
- {{Currency|Amount=1000|euro}} gives: €1,000
The first use of a currency should show the value and the full name of the currency, so if the "first" parameter is defined then that is what will be given.
- {{Currency|Amount=1000|quid|first=yes}} gives: 1,000 Euros
The Krone currencies (DKK, NOK, SEK) can be represented in two ways:
- {{Currency|1000|NOK}} gives: kr 1,000 – beware of ambiguity with Danish DKK (kr 1,000) and Swedish SEK (kr 1,000)
- {{Currency|1000|NOK2}} gives: NOK 1,000
