nl_langinfo — Query language and locale information

### 说明

nl_langinfo ( int `$item` ) : string

nl_langinfo() is used to access individual elements of the locale categories. Unlike localeconv(), which returns all of the elements, nl_langinfo() allows you to select any specific element.

### 参数

`item`

  `item` may be an integer value of the element or the constant name of the element. The following is a list of constant names for `item` that may be used and their description. Some of these constants may not be defined or hold no value for certain locales.
