console.log(foo) // 10.5

const bar = parseCurrency('$1,000,000.25')
console.log(bar) // 1000000.25

behavior

• it only works with USD formated currencies. for now
• if an empty string or a non-string value is passed, parseCurrency returns null.
• parseCurrency is a pure function, it does not mutate the provided string.
