It just can be confusing because commas are used to separate groups of thousands in the US and the UK {nm}

Thanks but maybe decimal points would be better next time. (not trying to be snarky) {nm} RamsFan2004 Dec 26, 08:49

It's a European thing :) {nm} hyperzeitgeist Dec 26, 09:09

I'm pretty sure it's just a French thing... ; ) {nm} RamsFan2004 Dec 26, 09:17

We use commas as decimal marks in Spain, too. {nm} celedhring Dec 26, 09:27

According to Wikipedia there are more countries using the comma than using the decimal point.... hyperzeitgeist Dec 26, 11:52

Or in this case, two groups of numbers (it looks like friday and weekend for me at a glance) {nm} RamsFan2004 Dec 26, 09:25

"at a glance" you thought The Big Short did 3mill on Friday and will do 78mill for the weekend because he used a comma? {nm} RazorHawk Dec 26, 09:28

At a glance, I didn't know what was going on. Upon further inspection I figured it out. {nm} RamsFan2004 Dec 26, 09:45

wow I learned something new :) {nm} tealfan Dec 26, 11:34

lol that was funny. It's not that confusing. I believe one could easily make the distinction :) {nm} Mala-Droi Dec 26, 09:35
