Decimal separator: Standards, Characters, History & Applications
A decimal separator is a symbol that separates the integer part from the fractional part of a number written in decimal form. Different countries officially designate different symbols for use as the separator. The choice of symbol can also affect the choice of symbol for the thousands separator used in digit grouping.

Connections between topic areas Semantic bridges
Semantic bridges connect parts of the graph that would otherwise be more separate. A bridge is a structural signal in this analysis, not a claim that the two topic areas are equivalent.
For Decimal separator, one of the stronger structural bridges in this analysis connects Decimal separator with History. Bridges highlight paths between different parts of the map and can reveal research angles that are easy to miss in a flat list.
