Query

Query is compose of two arguments

  • [value]: must be a decimal number, commas (,) will be ignored
  • [currency]: can be either code (USD, JPY,...) or alias ($, ¥,...), for alias mapping, see Currencies

Query is position-insensitive, besides the cur keyword, arguments in the following methods can be typed in any order. Namely, the following query all yields the same results:

  • cur 5 GBP CAD
  • cur 5 CAD GBP
  • cur GBP 5 CAD
  • cur CAD 5 GBP
  • cur GBP CAD 5
  • cur CAD GBP 5

The following examples demonstrate using the default config and settings
