 This is the default.

The strfmon function places characters into the array pointed to by s as controlled by the string pointed to by format . No more than maxsize bytes are placed into the array.

The format string is composed of zero or more directives: ordinary characters (not % ), which are copied unchanged to the output stream; and conversion specifications, each of which results in fetching zero or more subsequent arguments. Each conversion specification is introduced by the % character. After the % , the following appear in sequence: Zero or more of the following flags: = f A ' = ' character followed by another character f which is used as the numeric fill character. ^ Do not use grouping characters, regardless of the current locale default. + Represent positive values by prefixing them with a positive sign, and negative values by prefixing them with a negative sign. This is the default. ( Enclose negative values in parentheses. ! Do not include a currency symbol in the output. - Left justify the result. Only valid when a field width is specified. An optional minimum field width as a decimal number. By default, there is no minimum width. A ' # ' sign followed by a decimal number specifying the maximum expected number of digits after the radix character. A ' . ' character followed by a decimal number specifying the number the number of digits after the radix character. One of the following conversion specifiers: i The double argument is formatted as an international monetary amount. n The double argument is formatted as a national monetary amount. % A '%' character is written.

Examples:

#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <monetary.h>
int main()
{
    char buf[50];
    strfmon(buf, sizeof(buf), "[%^=*#6n] [%=*#6i]",1234.567, 1234.567);
    printf("%s
",buf);
}
