Does using a period in your number not cause confusion? 13.000 vs 13,000. I first read it is 13 since the zeros mean nothing following a period where im from. No shade, just curious.

Apologies. I'm from a country where the meaning of the period and comma is reversed compared to the US, so I did it this way out of habit.

No need to apologize. I didn’t know they were reversed. Do yall do periods for three digits? 1.000.000,00?

Yup, just like that
