Dafuq... What is 98,1%?? Am I on drugs ?

Some countries use the comma as a decimal separator. It’s not a mistake

@leviwhalen well I didn't know that.. Thanks for the info...

Some countries use it for money too. It gets confusing lol. 😁

@leviwhalen yes like our country (India).. we uses that..

Good thing there are comments explaining what's (not) wrong here :D

What is the other possible interpretation so ?

Idiots getting passed on work they did not do. Pathetic.

Aaand that's why you need to learn about the cultures, as a dev, you're writing a software for. Let me give you more examples by writing the number "thousand". You can write 1000 or 1 000 or 1.000 or 1,000 or 1'000. Different culture, different representation.

Just in case...
Different countries also use different date formats, keyboard layouts and time zones. Among other things.

@tyrogge I use 1000, 1 000 and 1,000... I'm clueless as to what's most used where I live

@SpectralKH its 1.0,0'0 0 I think

@Codex404 AAH makes sense. I wonder what the decimal would be though 🙄

@SpectralKH it is ¬

1.000,00 master race

@hube TIL that I live in a state in the country of Europe

We normally use 1'000,00 and dd/mm/aaaa also, our keyboard has èàìòùé instead of ~ and stuff (we're homeless)
I'm Italian

@lo98be a colleague of mine is from italy and I asked him about a few keys when I needed it. He tolf me he had it on the desktop. I was pretty confused but he had a few characters as filename on his desktop so he could copy it when needed...

I learnt the ASCII codes for both Windows and Linux 😅

@lo98be i have done that for characters as ëéöï, where the first two also are in the dutch language but while programming its annoying to use dutch layout so Im using the US one.

The Italian layout isn't the best for programming but it's ok and I'm too lazy to learn the US one without owning a US keyboard 😅

@lo98be the dutch keyboard is the same as the US one but the é is typed using " ' " and after that the "e" key. ë with a double quote(shift single quote) instead of a single quote. Opening strings with a eaiou would make a special version of these letters.

@relentlessCoder I referred to money.. we use ", "to separate digits

Leaning on those books that way doesn't look much stable 😅

@potatoCode India don't use comas as decimals. Wtf ?!

wtf? Give a representation for 1 million in INR. don't we use "," ? 🙄

@potatoCode Rs 100,000 legit but do we actually replace "." with "," ? Like, have you ever got 85,78 % in school ?

@Xenon I agreed with @leviwhalen mentioning about some countries usage of "," in currency. I think u misunderstood that..
