Each currency is assigned a three-letter code. For example, US dollar is coded -
USD (United States Dollar), euro is coded EUR (EURo), Swiss frank is coded CHF
(Confederation Helvetica Franc), Japanese yen is coded JPY (JaPanese Yen), British
pound is coded GBP (Great British Pound). The currency codes are defined by ISO-4217
standard. Usually they are formed as a two-letter ISO-3166 country code and the first
letter of currency name. There are a few exceptions most notable being the euro (EUR).
