Summary
| Description |
English: International Number Formatting Styles
a) In the number 1,234.56, the comma (,) is used as the thousands separator, and the period (.) as the decimal separator. This format is common in the United States and other English-speaking countries. b) In 1.234,56, the period (.) serves as the thousands separator, and the comma (,) as the decimal separator. This style is typical in many European countries, such as Germany, Italy, and Spain. c) For 1'234,56, the apostrophe (') acts as the thousands separator, and the comma (,) is the decimal separator. This is commonly used in Switzerland. d) In ١٬٢٣٤٫٥٦, used in Arabic script, the Arabic comma (٬) separates thousands, and the Arabic decimal point (٫) indicates the decimal. This format is standard in Arabic-speaking countries. |

The depicted text is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain because it is not a “literary work” or other protected type in sense of the local copyright law. Facts, data, and unoriginal information which is common property without sufficiently creative authorship in a general typeface or basic handwriting, and simple geometric shapes are not protected by copyright.
This tag does not generally apply to all images of texts. Particular countries can have different legal definition of the “literary work” as the subject of copyright and different courts' interpretation practices. Some countries protect almost every written work, while other countries protect distinctively artistic or scientific texts and databases only. Extent of creativeness, function and length of the text can be relevant. The copyright protection can be limited to the literary form – the included information itself can be excluded from protection. |
