Java Currency Class: getSymbol() Method

Java Currency Class: getSymbol() MethodLast update on August 19 2022 21:50:42 (UTC/GMT +8 hours) public String getSymbol()

The getSymbol() method is used to get the symbol of a given currency for the default DISPLAY locale.

For example, for the US Dollar, the symbol is "$" if the default locale is the US, while for other locales it may be "US$". If no symbol can be determined, the ISO 4217 currency code is returned.

This is equivalent to calling getSymbol(Locale.getDefault(Locale.Category.DISPLAY)).

getSymbol()

Return Value:

the symbol of this currency for the default DISPLAY locale

      // Get and print the symbol of the currency
      String symbol = cur1.getSymbol();
      System.out.println("Currency symbol is = " + symbol);
