currency() -- Formats "amount" in standard American currency format. "amount" can be a real, integer, or numeric string. "width" is the output field width, in which the amount is right adjusted. The returned string will be longer than "width" if necessary to preserve significance. "minus" is the character string to be used for negative amounts (default "-"), and is placed to the right of the amount.
