I'm working on a very basic shopping cart system. I have a table items that has a column price of type integer . I'm having trouble displaying the price value in my views for prices that include both Euros and cents. Am I missing something obvious as far as handling currency in the Rails framework is concerned? molf You'll probably want to use a DECIMAL type in your database. In your migration, do something like this: # precision is the total number of digits # scale is the number of digits to the right of the decimal point add_column :items, :price, :decimal, :precision => 8, :scale => 2 In

What is “The Best” U.S. Currency RegEx?

余生颓废 提交于 2019-11-26 02:29:17
问题 A quick search for currency regex brings up a lot of results. The problem I have in choosing one of these is that regex is difficult to verify without testing all the edge cases. I could spend a lot of time on this as I am sure hundreds of other developers have already done. Does anyone have a regex for U.S. Currency that has been thoroughly tested ? My only requirement is that the matched string is U.S Currency and parses to System.Decimal: [ws][sign][digits,]digits[.fractional-digits][ws]

问题 Is there a way to get the float value of a string like this: 75,25 € , other than parsefloat(str_replace(\',\', \'.\', $var)) ?

问题 Is there a way to format a decimal as following: 100 -> \"100\" 100.1 -> \"100.10\" If it is a round number, omit the decimal part. Otherwise format with two decimal places. 回答1: I doubt it. The problem is that 100 is never 100 if it's a float, it's normally 99.9999999999 or 100.0000001 or something like that. If you do want to format it that way, you have to define an epsilon, that is, a maximum distance from an integer number, and use integer formatting if the difference is smaller, and a

问题 We are rewriting our legacy Accounting System in VB.NET and SQL Server. We brought in a new team of .NET/ SQL Programmers to do the rewrite.
