#number_to_currency(number, options = {})

Formats a number into a currency string.

number_to_currency(1234567890.50)  # => "$1,234,567,890.50"
number_to_currency(1234567890.506) # => "$1,234,567,890.51"
number_to_currency("12x34")        # => "$12x34"

number_to_currency(1234567890.50, unit: "£", separator: ",", delimiter: "")
# => "£1234567890,50"

The currency unit and number formatting of the current locale will be used unless otherwise specified via options. No currency conversion is performed. If the user is given a way to change their locale, they will also be able to change the relative value of the currency displayed with this helper. If your application will ever support multiple locales, you may want to specify a constant :locale option or consider using a library capable of currency conversion.

Options

:locale

The locale to use for formatting. Defaults to the current locale.
