How to use NumberFormattor class in Windows Store apps?

// This scenario uses the Windows.Globalization.NumberFormatting.CurrencyFormatter class

// to format a number as a currency.

// Determine the current user's default currency.

var userCurrency = Windows.System.UserProfile.GlobalizationPreferences.currencies;

// Numbers to be formatted.

var wholeNumber = 12345;

var fractionalNumber = 12345.67;

// Currency formatter using the current user's preference settings for number formatting.

var userCurrencyFormat = new Windows.Globalization.NumberFormatting.CurrencyFormatter(userCurrency);

var currencyDefault = userCurrencyFormat.format(fractionalNumber);

// Create a formatter initialized to a specific currency,

// in this case US Dollar (specified as an ISO 4217 code)

// but with the default number formatting for the current user.

var currencyFormatUSD = new

Windows.Globalization.NumberFormatting.CurrencyFormatter("USD");

var currencyUSD = currencyFormatUSD.format(fractionalNumber);

// Create a formatter initialized to a specific currency.

// In this case it's the Euro with the default number formatting for France.

var currencyFormatEuroFR = new Windows.Globalization.NumberFormatting.CurrencyFormatter("EUR", ["fr-FR"], "FR");

var currencyEuroFR = currencyFormatEuroFR.format(fractionalNumber);

// Results for display.

var results = "Fixed number (" + fractionalNumber + ")\n" +

              "With user's default currency: " + currencyDefault + "\n" +

              "Formatted US Dollar: " + currencyUSD + "\n" +

              "Formatted Euro (fr-FR defaults): " + currencyEuroFR;
