RE: The Joy of flashing the STEEM account-value!!
To be clear, you transferred seven SBD not seven thousand, right? Some countries use a comma while others use a decimal point. In the US for example, 7,640 means seven thousand six hundred and forty SBD. I suspect you mean seven SBDs and sixty-four SB...umm...cents.
Why would anyone use a comma for that??
Probably the same reason some use the metric system and others don't or the reason that some drive on the right side while others drive on the left. Different strokes for different folks, I guess, I guess.
lol because other countries do things differently
Although not the other countries, the people of Bangladesh will do it
That is ridiculous! Numbers should have been a universal language after all--here comes people creating their own system. LOL
Agreed. Decimals are objectively correct, as used elsewhere in math.
