But you can have some strange behaviour:
>>> import locale
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'fr_FR.UTF-8')
'fr_FR.UTF-8'
>>> locale.atof('2.500,5')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/locale.py", line 316, in atof
return func(string)
ValueError: invalid literal for float(): 2.500.5
>>> locale.atof('2.500')
2.5
If you agree to make it more strict, I can work on a patch, otherwise I will just add some tests on my code.
