NAME
       localeconv - get numeric formatting information

SYNOPSIS
       #include <locale.h>

       struct lconv *localeconv(void);

DESCRIPTION
       The  localeconv()  function  returns  a  pointer  to  a  struct lconv for the current locale.  This structure is shown in
       locale(7), and contains all values associated with the locale categories LC_NUMERIC and LC_MONETARY.  Programs  may  also
       use the functions printf(3) and strfmon(3), which behave according to the actual locale in use.

CONFORMING TO
       C89, C99.

BUGS
       The printf(3) family of functions may or may not honor the current locale.
