Java Currency Formatter

    Java 8 - Not optimal, but hopefully clear:

    import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.Locale;
import java.text.NumberFormat;

public class Solution {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Scanner - For the "payment" input
        Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
        double payment = scanner.nextDouble();
        scanner.close();
        
        // Four NumberFormat instances - One for each locale
        NumberFormat f_US = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(Locale.US);
        NumberFormat f_IN = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(new Locale("en", "IN"));
        NumberFormat f_CH = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(Locale.CHINA);
        NumberFormat f_FR = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(Locale.FRANCE);

        // Four System outputs - One for each locale
        System.out.println("US: " + f_US.format(payment));
        System.out.println("India: " + f_IN.format(payment));
        System.out.println("China: " + f_CH.format(payment));
        System.out.println("France: " + f_FR.format(payment));
    }
}
