Java NumberFormat getCurrencyInstance Method

The getCurrencyInstance() method of the NumberFormat class returns the instance of the NumberFormat class. The java.text.NumberFormat class is used for formatting numbers and currencies as per a specific Locale. Number formats varies from country to country

Here, we have considered a locale.

NumberFormat n = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(Locale.FRANCE);

Then, we have formatted a double value with the currency.

double points = 1.78;
System.out.println(n.format(points));

The following is the final example.

       System.out.println(n.format(points));
       System.out.println(n.format(totalPoints));
    }
