10
11 $curr = code2currency('usd'); # $curr gets 'US Dollar'
12 $code = currency2code('Euro'); # $code gets 'eur'

18 The "Locale::Codes::Currency" module provides access to standard codes
19 used for identifying currencies and funds, such as those defined in ISO
20 4217.
21
22 Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which
23 specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 4217
24 three-letter codes will be used.
25
27 There are several different code sets you can use for identifying
28 currencies. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a
29 constant that is automatically exported by this module.
30
31 For example, the two are equivalent:
32
33 $curr = code2currency('usd','alpha');
34 $curr = code2currency('usd',LOCALE_CURR_ALPHA);
35
36 The codesets currently supported are:
37
38 alpha, LOCALE_CURR_ALPHA
39 This is a set of three-letter (uppercase) codes from ISO 4217 such
40 as EUR for Euro.
41
42 Two of the codes specified by the standard (XTS which is reserved
43 for testing purposes and XXX which is for transactions where no
44 currency is involved) are omitted.
45
46 This is the default code set.
47
48 num, LOCALE_CURR_NUMERIC
49 This is the set of three-digit numeric codes from ISO 4217.
