# Separators Monetary amounts often use separators to format numbers in order to make them easier to read. The two standard separators are the decimal separator and the group separator. The Money2 package allows you to control what decimal and group separator are used for each currency. NOTE: regardless of the separators you choose for you Currency format patterns MUST always use the default group (,) and decimal (.) separators. This ensures that we can share patterns across currencies. e.g. ```dart 'S#,##0.00' ``` --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
