It seems that C++ standard contains contradiction about thousands separator in
"C" locale:
22.2.3.1, p1 says:
The instantiations required in Table 51 (22.1.1.1.1), namely numpunct<wchar_t>
and numpunct<char>, provide classic C numeric formats, i.e. they contain
information equivalent to that contained in the C locale or their wide
character counterparts as if obtained by a call to widen.
also, 22.2.3.1.2 p.2 says:
char_type do_thousands_sep() const;
Returns: A character for use as the digit group separator. The required
instantiations return , or L,.
It appears, that according to C++ standard, thousands separator for "C" locale
is ','.
But according to the ISO standard of "C"("POSIX") locale (Section 7.3, Locale
Definition), thousands separator in this locale should be '\0', which means N/A
or not assigned.
Or is this reasoning wrong?
