This is the type sub-template to Template:Currency. The Type sub-template converts the value it is given to the appropriate linked currency name, e.g., [[United States dollar|US$]].

Usage

Note: This template should generally not be used alone.

There is only one unnamed parameter used in this template, which finds the link from {{Currency/Link}} and the symbol from {{Currency/Symbol}}. Note that any value given to it is converted to upper case before processing for matches, so this template does not distinguish between "United States" and "UNITED STATES", for example. If the parameter is unknown, the result is undefined. If the parameter is empty, the result is as for USD.

Examples

Parameter Result
{{Currency/Type|GBP}} GB£
{{Currency/Type|EUR}}
{{Currency/Type|USD}} US$
{{Currency/Page|CNY}} Renminbi
{{Currency/Type|XYZ}}
{{Currency/Type|}} US$
