🇵🇪 (Peru) only uses decimal for currency

I hope NASA checks Peruvians' math before they accept their contributions to Artemis /s

Does decimal here mean (decimal) dot or do they not use decimal numbers/fractions?

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 2 points 1 year ago

Yes, they missed the word "dot" (as long as we can trust the unsourced Wikipedia list they probably used, I cannot find another English-language source confirming that). I was just kidding (as indicated by "/s").
