Use of currency symbols along with a thousand separator












2















I frequently use the eurosym package to typeset Euro values.



documentclass{article}
usepackage{eurosym}
begin{document}
EUR{100000}
end{document}


This translates into '€ 100000'.



It however misses the option for thousands separators. For an English text, I'd like to convert this into '€ 100,000'. In a German text, one would rather do '100.000 €'. The placement of the Euro sign is already taken care of by the eurosym package.



Is there a way (ideally, a package) that provides this or does someone have an idea how to achieve this easily?

    Have you had a look at the siunitx package? It can also handle currency with a special syntax. And includes various tools to format numbers

Combine eurosym with siunitx:



documentclass{article}
usepackage{eurosym}
usepackage{siunitx}

newcommand{eur}[2]{EUR{num[#1]{#2}}}

begin{document}

eur{10000}

eur[group-separator={,}]{10000}

sisetup{group-separator={,}}

eur{10000}

end{document}


A particular option for number formatting can be passed as optional argument or set by default with sisetup.

The same but with usepackage[right]{eurosym}:

    Just use the same eurosym package along with sistyle package in which you define the separator location to be thousand using SIthousandsep{,}. Then you can use this



    documentclass{article}
    usepackage{eurosym}
    usepackage{sistyle}
    SIthousandsep{,}
    newcommand{euros}[1]{euro{num{#1}}}

    begin{document}
    I have a 5-figure pay check with euros{40000}.

    Now I am a millionaire with euros{4000000}.

    I wish I own a Ferrari worth of euros{400000000000} (I have no idea how much that costs).
    end{document}


    to get:



    enter image description here



    PS: I prefer to use euro{...} instead of EUR{...}. Because, the latter gives an additional spurious space which, I personally do not prefer ;)



    The output with EUR{...}:



    enter image description here



    Also, note that you can use just euro as well.

    • Because EUR{} recognizes the babel setting and sets the euro sign to the left or the right accordingly.
