Decimal and Comma Separators, Number of decimals

The decimal separator and comma separator are used to format and interpret numeric values.

Decimal Separator

  • The decimal separator is used to separate the whole number part from the fractional part of a number.

Example:

  • In many countries, the decimal separator is a period (.). 
  • 10.99
  • Several other countries use a comma (,) as the decimal separator. 
  • 10,99

Digital group separators

Comma Separator

  • The comma separator is used to separate thousands, millions, and other larger groups in numeric values.
  • Example:
  • In countries, the comma is used as the thousand’s separator. 
  • 1,000 represents one thousand.
  • 1,000,000 represents one million.


  • In some countries following the comma-period format, dot/period is used as the thousands separator.
  • 1.000 represents one thousand.
  • 1.000.000 represents one million.
