I forgot that your heathens use "." Instead of "," in numbers. I was very confused

Swiss system is best system: apostrophes for thousands, either dot or comma for decimals. Completely unambiguous for anyone even if you're seeing it for the first time: 12'345.67

That is interesting. I like it. Wondering if I can use it at work or in code. Hmmm

In my learning a decimal point comes after the integer. So it would mean 1km == 1 m
