Support for Indian and other similar number formats

[lukeapage]

is you look at the MS C# and Ajax formatting rules, they specify a seperator and then a group size e.g. [2, 3] and you count from the right and if you hit the end of the definition, you repeat. This could easily be added on as an additional option which would default to [3].

It looks like China and Japan group them as in 1,0000,0000,0000.

The Indian number system looks like it's the most complex. It appears as though everyone else uses either 3 or 4 digit groupings.

Yes, I need Indian currency formatting and will need to roll my own solution...

Any progress on this?
Thanks

+1 this. Everyone in India uses that format

[sivarajd]

The number format specified above incorrect, and is not as simple. The actual format used is a repeating pattern of groups of 3;2;2. I.e., to write hundred trillion (100,000,000,000,000 or 10E14), you would write as 1,00,00,000,00,00,000. It would be read as one crore crore. One crore basically is 10 million and has seven zeros which are grouped together.

@DilipVxceed I ended up creating my own package called inrformat.
