Description
Convert a string made of a number and a currency symbol to float or to a Currency Type.
I think that we should write a simple version of this converter supporting a few frequently used currency, such as:
- Dolar
- Euro
- Yen
- Real
- Bitcoin
And then, eventually, build it seriously as another project.
What do you think?
