[FIXED] How can a decimal number with a comma be converted in a decimal (Point) in SwiftUI?

Issue

How can a textField were a comma is inserted be Formated so the inserted Decimal value example 10,05$ can be converted to a decimal(Point) 10.05$?

private static let Intrest = "Intrest"
private static let Repayment = "Repayment"



var loan: Double {
    let intrest = Double (Intrest)
    let repayment = Double (Repayment)

    let Loan = Intrest + Repayment

    return Loan
}



var body: some View {
     VStack{
        HStack{
           Text ("Repayment %")
           Spacer()
           TextField("2 %", text: $Repayment)
                .keyboardType(.decimalPad)
            }
      VStack{
         HStack{
            Text ("Loan / month")
            }
            TextField("2 %", text: $Loan)
                .keyboardType(.decimalPad)
            }
}

The problem only occurs because in many countries mostly comma is used which breaks the calculation.

Thanks

Solution

You need to make sure you convert your string into a double with point and not comma.
