<para>
<function>money_format</function> returns a formatted version of
<parameter>number</parameter>. This function wraps the C library
function <function>strfmon</function>, with the difference that
this implementation converts only one number at a time.
</para>
<para>
The format specification consists of the following sequence:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>a <literal>%</literal> character</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>optional flags</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>optional field width</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>optional left precision</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>optional right precision</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>a required conversion character</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</para>
<formalpara>
<title>Flags</title>
<para>
One or more of the optional flags below can be used:
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>=</literal><replaceable>f</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
The character <literal>=</literal> followed by a a (single byte)
character <replaceable>f</replaceable> to be used as the numeric fill
character. The default fill character is space.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>^</literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Disable the use of grouping characters (as defined
by the current locale).
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>+</literal> or <literal>(</literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Specify the formatting style for positive and negative numbers.
If <literal>+</literal> is used, the locale's equivalent for
<literal>+</literal> and <literal>-</literal> will be used. If
<literal>(</literal> is used, negative amounts are enclosed in
parenthesis. If no specification is given, the default is
<literal>+</literal>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>!</literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Suppress the currency symbol from the output string.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>-</literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>
If present, it will make all fields left-justified (padded to the
right), as opposed to the default which is for the fields to be
right-justified (padded to the left).
</para>

</formalpara>
<formalpara>
<title>Field width</title>
<para>

<para>
For instance, French notation usually use two decimals,
comma (',') as decimal separator, and space (' ') as
thousand separator. This is achieved with this line :
</para>
<programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
$number = 1234.56;
// english notation (default)
$english_format_number = number_format($number);
// 1,234
// French notation
$nombre_format_francais = number_format($number, 2, ',', ' ');
// 1 234,56
$number = 1234.5678;
// english notation without thousands seperator
$english_format_number = number_format($number, 2, '.', '');
// 1234.57
?>
]]>
</programlisting>
