[BUG] - Decimal = Comma

[KSanders7070]

There are some nations that use commas in place of periods as decimal points; This results in very strange and sometimes completely invalid GeoJSON outputs.

FEB should force the use of periods for decimal notation, regardless of the user’s locale. This can be done by setting the locale in your program to use a period as the decimal separator.

You can set the culture for the entire application or for specific number formatting tasks using the CultureInfo class from the System.Globalization namespace.

We can set the culture at the beginning of FEB to use the invariant culture, which ensures a period is used as the decimal separator throughout the application.

using System.Globalization;

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        // Set the culture to invariant, which uses "." as the decimal separator
        CultureInfo.DefaultThreadCurrentCulture = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;
        CultureInfo.DefaultThreadCurrentUICulture = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;

        // Your program logic here
    }
}

For now, users can temporarily modify their system to recognize periods as decimals prior to running FEB but is recommended that they reset it back to commas after using FEB.

1. Open Control Panel:

• Press Windows + R to open the Run dialog box.
• Type control and press Enter.

2. Go to Region Settings:

• In the Control Panel, select Clock and Region.
• Click on Region or Change date, time, or number formats.

3. Customize Format:

• In the Region window, under the Formats tab, click on Additional settings….

4. Change Decimal Symbol:

• In the Customize Format window, find the Decimal symbol field.
  Change it from a comma (,) to a period (.).

5. Apply Changes:

• Click Apply and then OK to save the changes.

6. Restart the Application:

• Ensure that the changes take effect by restarting any application that may be affected.
