import java.util.Locale;

public class LocaleNumberFormat {
    public static void main(String[] args)  {
        // Format number for Italy locale. In Italy locale the decimal point
        // symbol is a comma.
        NumberFormat formatter = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(Locale.ITALY);
        try {
            String number = formatter.format(195325.75);
            System.out.println("Number in Italy: " + number);
        } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        // Format number for Japan locale. In Japan locale the decimal point
        // symbol is a dot.
        formatter = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(Locale.JAPAN);
        try {
            String number = formatter.format(195325.75);
            System.out.println("Number in Japan: " + number);
        } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

The code snippet output:

Number in Italy: 195.325,75
Number in Japan: 195,325.75

Hi, I'm a passionate programmer based on the beautiful island of Bali. I specialize in Java, with hands-on experience in Spring, Hibernate/JPA, and MySQL. I'm currently working on a project I care deeply about, and your support—big or small—helps fuel my work (and my coffee ☕️).

If you like what I’m building, consider buying me a cup of coffee. Thanks a lot!
