     The localeconv function gets detailed information on the locale-
     specific settings for numeric formatting of the program's current
     locale. This information is stored in a structure of lconv type
     (defined in LOCALE.H).
     See: lconv
 
     Return Value
 
     The localeconv function returns a pointer to a filled-in object
     of type struct lconv. The values contained in the object can be
     overwritten by subsequent calls to localeconv and do not directly
     modify the object. Calls to the setlocale function with <category>
     values of LC_ALL, LC_MONETARY, or LC_NUMERIC will overwrite the
     contents of the structure.
