$I was taught that a dollar sign had two ligns. An "s" with one line is a peso sign.Technically true, but ...Both forms are in common use in the US. It's generally understood that a $ sign in the US means dollars, and in Mexico it means pesos. In fact, US $1 coins use a single line in the denomination.
The French use the Euro, €
Mexico uses the "$" symbol to represent pesos.
dude, use a dollar sign.
Does the negative sign come before or after the dollar sign?The negative sign comes before the dollar sign.
money --> ([dollar] sign) <--
They use completely different currencies... america uses the Dollar - Mexico uses the Peso.
the dollar sign appears before a variable/array. Essentially it just tells php that its a variable. $food = "cheese pizza"; or $myfavoritenumber = 2 ;
It indicates that the currency is Mexican pesos. Mexico uses the $ sign for its currency just like the U.S., but the two are worth very different amounts. Putting an M after the $ sign prevents confusion.
plus sign (+), minus (-), number (#), decimal point for decimals and money, percent (%), dollar sign ($), equal (=)
Indonesia's currency does not have a dollar sign.
PEOPLE BELIEVED THAT THE DOLLAR SIGN CAME INTO USE FROM A DESIGN MARKED ON OLD SPANISH COINS CALLED PIECES OF EIGHT. THESE PEICES OF EIGHT WERE USED BY AMERICANS as dollars until they coined their own silver coins. one side of the piece of eight had 2 pillars stamped on it, with a ribbon curling on them. the dollar sign formed by the ribbon probably inspired the dollar sign
