Template:Bangladeshi taka
৳
Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]This is a multifunction template. At its simplest, it adds the currency mark "৳", as recommended by MOS:CURRENCY for many situations. The template can also link to the Bangladeshi taka article and can even calculate inflation. See warnings below.
Usage
{{BDT|value}}
Example:
{{BDT}}→ ৳{{BDT|123.45}}→ ৳123.45
Link
The parameter |link=yes may be used to link ৳ to the article Bangladeshi taka. This is turned off by default, but may be appropriate for the first occurrence of the term in an article.
Example:
{{BDT|123.45|link=yes}}→ ৳123.45
Inflation calculation
The template supports inflation calculation, by way of {{Inflation}}. If the second parameter is used, to specify a year, and this year is within a certain range of available inflation data (specifically, if 1986 ≤ year < 2023), the equivalent value represented in 2023 taka will be calculated in parentheses. However, this function should only be used in appropriate situations.
Examples:
{{BDT|100|1985}}→ ৳100{{BDT|100|1986}}→ ৳100 (equivalent to ৳976.94 in 2023){{BDT|100|1990}}→ ৳100 (equivalent to ৳735.5 in 2023){{BDT|100|1990|link=yes}}→ ৳100 (equivalent to ৳735.5 in 2023){{BDT|100|2022}}→ ৳100 (equivalent to ৳109.89 in 2023){{BDT|100|2023}}→ ৳100{{BDT|100|2025}}→ ৳100{{BDT|100|2026}}→ ৳100
Additional parameter |about=yes will cause the template to calculate to the nearest taka (instead of the nearest poisha), and prefix the calculated value with "about". The rounding can be fine-tuned further by using |round=integer. These parameters may be combined.
Examples:
{{BDT|10|1990}}→ ৳10 (equivalent to ৳73.55 in 2023){{BDT|10|1990|round=0}}→ ৳10 (equivalent to ৳74 in 2023){{BDT|10|1990|about=yes}}→ ৳10 (equivalent to about ৳74 in 2023){{BDT|1000|1990|round=2}}→ ৳1,000 (equivalent to ৳7,355.04 in 2023){{BDT|1000|1990|round=-2}}→ ৳1,000 (equivalent to ৳7,400 in 2023){{BDT|1000|1990|round=-2|about=yes}}→ ৳1,000 (equivalent to about ৳7,400 in 2023)
