Object oriented style
$value
, string &$currency

$fmt
, string $value
, string &$currency
[, int &$position
] )Parse a string into a double and a currency using the current formatter.
fmtNumberFormatter object.

Example #1 numfmt_parse_currency() example
<?php
$fmt = numfmt_create( 'de_DE', NumberFormatter::CURRENCY );
$num = "1.234.567,89\xc2\xa0$";
echo "We have ".numfmt_parse_currency($fmt, $num, $curr)." in $curr\n";
?>
Example #2 OO example
<?php
$fmt = new NumberFormatter( 'de_DE', NumberFormatter::CURRENCY );
$num = "1.234.567,89\xc2\xa0$";
echo "We have ".$fmt->parseCurrency($num, $curr)." in $curr\n";
?>
The above example will output:
We have 1234567.89 in USD
The given examples confused me a bit. This may be a bit more clear:
$region = 'en_US';
$currency = 'USD';
$formatter = new NumberFormatter($region, NumberFormatter::CURRENCY);
echo $formatter->parseCurrency(12543.67, $currency);
Responds with:
$12,543.67
