Every element in the one-dimensional array must be an integer from 1 through 9. The last element can be 0.
The first element of the array defines the number of elements in the least significant group of digits immediately to the left of the CurrencyDecimalSeparator. Each subsequent element refers to the next significant group of digits to the left of the previous group. If the last element of the array is not 0, the remaining digits are grouped based on the last element of the array. If the last element is 0, the remaining digits are not grouped.
For example, if the array contains { 3, 4, 5 }, the digits will be grouped similar to "$55,55555,55555,55555,4444,333.00". If the array contains { 3, 4, 0 }, the digits will be grouped similar to "$55555555555555555,4444,333.00".
