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.

RETURN VALUE

       The  localeconv()  function  returns a pointer to a filled in struct lconv.  This structure may be (in glibc, is) statically allocated, and
       may be overwritten by subsequent calls.	According to POSIX, the caller should not modify the contents of this structure.  The localeconv()
       function always succeeds.
