FAQ

How does Python handle locale?
The locale module is implemented on top of the _locale module, which in turn uses an ANSI C locale (also called the "POSIX locale") implementation if available. The C locale is often described as "culture-neutral" because it doesn't apply any regional or language-specific rules for formatting data. It is a basic, system-independent locale that follows standardized rules for formatting data such as numbers, dates, and currency. The C locale uses U.S.-style conventions by default, such as:

• Period (.) as the decimal point for numbers
• Simple ASCII character classification and sorting
• English-style date and time formats
