		       │		│should replace the radix character

       If the locale's values  for  p_cs_precedes  and	n_cs_precedes  do  not
       match, the value of nl_langinfo(CRNCYSTR) is unspecified.

       The <langinfo.h> header declares the following as a function:

	 char *nl_langinfo(nl_item);

       Inclusion of <langinfo.h> header may also make visible all symbols from
       <nl_types.h>.

USAGE
       Wherever possible, users are advised to use functions  compatible  with
       those  in  the ISO C standard to access items of langinfo data. In par‐
       ticular, the strftime(3C) function should be used to  access  date  and
       time  information defined in category LC_TIME. The localeconv(3C) func‐
       tion should be used to access information corresponding	to  RADIXCHAR,
       THOUSEP, and CRNCYSTR.
