Formatting Dates and Numbers

To globalize your Wijmo application, include a reference to the appropriate culture file after loading Wijmo. Dates are formatted using the Globalize.formatDate function, and numbers are formatted using the Globalize.formatNumber function. This sample uses these methods to shows the formats for some of the supported cultures.
