ThousandsParser

Implements caplin.element.Parser.
Parses an amount and strips any thousands separators.

ThousandsParser is typically used in the XML Renderer Framework, but can be invoked programmatically as in the following example which evaluates to "8987551787.0":

caplin.element.parser.ThousandsParser.parse("8,987,551,787.0", {}) The number grouping separator will change per locale. The english separator defaults to "," as in the example above, see the i18n property ct.i18n.number.grouping.separator in other locales for their separators.

See caplin.element.formatter.ThousandsFormatter for the complementary formatter.
