ଛାଞ୍ଚ:US$

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template adds the currency mark "US$" linked to the United States dollar article.

Usage

{{US$|value}} (value must be specified)

Example:

• {{US$|123.45}} produces US$୧୨୩.୪୫

Inflation calculation

The template supports calculation of inflation. A second parameter can be used to specify a year from 1800 onwards and the relative value in ୨୦୨୪ will be calculated.

{{US$|value|year}}

Examples:

• {{US$|10|1799}} → US$୧୦
• {{US$|10|1800}} → US$୧୦
• {{US$|10|2013}} → US$୧୦

A third parameter |about=yes will cause the template to calculate to the nearest dollar (instead of the nearest cent), and prefix the calculated value with "about". The rounding can be fine-tuned further by using |round=integer. These parameters may be combined.

Examples:

• {{US$|10|1935}} → US$୧୦
• {{US$|10|1935|about=yes}} → US$୧୦
• {{US$|10|1935|round=0}} → US$୧୦
• {{US$|1000|1935|round=2}} → US$୧,୦୦୦
• {{US$|1000|1935|round=-2}} → US$୧,୦୦୦
• {{US$|1000|1935|round=-2|about=yes}} → US$୧,୦୦୦

Link

The parameter |link=yes may be used to link US$ to the article United States dollar. This is turned off by default, but may be appropriate for the first occurrence of the term in an article.

Example:

• {{US$|10|1935|link=yes}} → US$୧୦
