Examples

LangInform.langByCode() method exampels:

    LangInform.langByCode("es-US").name(); //"Spanish"
    LangInform.langByCode("es-US").code(); //"es-US"
    LangInform.langByCode("es-US").fullName(); //"Spanish – United States"
    LangInform.langByCode("es-US").hex(); //"540A"
    LangInform.langByCode("es-US").dec(); //"21514"
    LangInform.langByCode("es-US").locale(); //"es"

LangInform. method examples:

    LangInform.langByHex("540A").name(); //"Spanish"
    LangInform.langByHex("540A").code(); //"es-US"
    LangInform.langByHex("540A").fullName(); //"Spanish – United States"
    LangInform.langByHex("540A").hex(); //"540A"
    LangInform.langByHex("540A").dec(); //"21514"
    LangInform.langByHex("540A").locale(); //"es"

LangInform. method examples:

    LangInform.langByDec("21514").name(); //"Spanish"
    LangInform.langByDec(21514).code(); //"es-US"
    LangInform.langByDec("21514").fullName(); //"Spanish – United States"
    LangInform.langByDec(21514).hex(); //"540A"
    LangInform.langByDec("21514").dec(); //"21514"
    LangInform.langByDec(21514).locale(); //"es"
