Localization library
The locale facility includes internationalization s upport for character clas s ication and s tring collation,
numeric, monetary, and date/time formatting and pars ing, and mes s age retrieval. Locale s ettings control
the behavior of s tream I/O, regular expres s ion library, and other components of the C++ s tandard
library.
