Range:1–32

d: specifies the number of digits to the right of the decimal point in the numeric value.

Details

The NLMNYIw.d format reads integer binary (fixed-point) values, including negative values that are represented in two's-complement notation. The NLMNYIw.d format writes numeric values by using the international currency code, and locale-dependent thousands and decimal separators. The position of international currency code is also locale dependent.

Note: The NLMNYIw.d format does not convert currency format, therefore, the value of the formatted number should equal the currency of the current locale value.

Comparisons

The NLMNYw.d and NLMNYIw.d formats write the monetary format with locale-dependent thousands and decimal separators. However, the NLMNYIw.d format uses three-letter international currency codes, such as USD, while NLMNYw.d format uses local currency symbols, such as $.

Example

In the following example, the LOCALE= system option is set to English_UnitedStates.

x=put(-1234.56789,nlmnyi32.2);
y=put(-1234.56789,nlmny32.2);
z=put(-1234.56789,dollar32.2);
