fixes #94

I had to add a .gitignore file as the editor .idea/.vscode directories were being picked up. Took the liberty to add the other standard golang gitignore entries as well, hope you don't mind.

.gitignore Outdated
Comment on lines 8 to 12
# Test binary, built with `go test -c`
*.test

# Output of the go coverage tool, specifically when used with LiteIDE
*.out

My own two cents:

If you need to ignore something that is specific to a project it belongs in the project's .gitignore

If you need to ignore something that is specific to the developer it belongs in the developer's global .gitignore.

Thoughts?

I'll remove the .gitignore from the PR

I wonder if it would make sense to take some optional Options which could set things like which $ sign to use and if it should be prepended or appended (or omitted entirely) and could control the # of decimal points.

So you could do things like:

  1. 1.83M USD
  2. €2.34T
  3. 48.9945

etc. Could also look at the various locales used with https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.money-format.php

Very good idea, I'll add the Options pattern, the options will be:

  • WithSign(s string) // can pass "" to remove the default ($) sign
  • WithAppend() // if no append, Prepend is default -- otherwise could add both options
  • WithPrecision(n int) // defaults to .2

WDYT?
