Excel has a special option to convert all decimal points typed with the numpad's . key into commas. -.-'
Yeah I have seen that before. It just looks strange - it is customary here to use commas every third digit to the left of the decimal. Clearly it is not in Portugal.
Indeed.... in Portugal, they use... dots.
1.000 is one thousand
1,000 is one... and a waste of zeros.
I grew up with DOS and electronic calculators, where 1,000B was one thousand bytes and 1.000 is one with a waste of zeros... so... I'm in between two worlds.
