Explanation:
A display mask is a feature of a graphical user interface (GUI) which is programmed to display results or memory contents in a specified way, in connection with an application on a PC, a website, or a mobile device (tablet or smart phone). WINDEV is a program commonly used for currency exchange applications. The display masks take into account which decimal separator ("." or ",") is being used and displayed, which thousand separator ("," or " "), and which currency symbol.
