Revision as of 03:40, 3 April 2016

This is a multifunction template. At its simplest, it adds the currency mark "৳", as recommended by MOS:CURRENCY for many situations. The template can also link to the Bangladeshi taka article and can even calculate inflation. See warnings below.

Usage

{{BDT|value}}

Example:

  • {{BDT}}
  • {{BDT|123.45}}৳123.45

Link

The parameter |link=yes may be used to link ৳ to the article Bangladeshi taka. This is turned off by default, but may be appropriate for the first occurrence of the term in an article.

Example:

  • {{BDT|123.45|link=yes}}123.45

Inflation calculation

The template supports inflation calculation, by way of {{Inflation}}. If the second parameter is used, to specify a year, and this year is within a certain range of available inflation data (specifically, if 1986 ≤ year < 2014), the equivalent value represented in 2014 taka will be calculated in parentheses. However, this function should only be used in appropriate situations.

  • {{BDT|value|year}}
  • {{BDT|value|year|round=round|about=yes}}

Examples:

  • {{BDT|100|1985}}৳100
  • {{BDT|100|1986}}৳100 (equivalent to ৳557.17 in 2014)
  • {{BDT|100|1990}}৳100 (equivalent to ৳419.47 in 2014)
  • {{BDT|100|1990|link=yes}}100 (equivalent to ৳419.47 in 2014)
  • {{BDT|100|2013}}৳100 (equivalent to ৳106.99 in 2014)
  • {{BDT|100|2014}}৳100
  • {{BDT|100|2025}}৳100
  • {{BDT|100|2026}}৳100

Additional parameter |about=yes will cause the template to calculate to the nearest taka (instead of the nearest poisha), and prefix the calculated value with "about". The rounding can be fine-tuned further by using |round=integer. These parameters may be combined.

Examples:

  • {{BDT|10|1935}}৳10
  • {{BDT|10|1935|round=0}}৳10
  • {{BDT|10|1935|about=yes}}৳10
  • {{BDT|1000|1935|round=2}}৳1,000
  • {{BDT|1000|1935|round=-2}}৳1,000
  • {{BDT|1000|1935|round=-2|about=yes}}৳1,000
