import java.util.Currency;
import java.util.Set;

/*

 * getAvailableCurrencies() method of Currency class.
 */

public class CurrencyGetAvailableCurrenciesExample {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		
		// get the available currency on our system
		Set currencySet  = Currency.getAvailableCurrencies();
		// list all currency available on the set
		for(Currency currency:currencySet){
			System.out.println(currency.getDisplayName());
			
		}
