toUnits

TAmount[]

Get the amount of a Dinero object in units.

This function returns the total amount divided into each unit and sub-unit, as an array. For example, an object representing $10.45 expressed as 1045 (with currency USD and no custom scale) would return [10, 45] for 10 dollars and 45 cents.

When specifying multiple bases, the function returns as many units as necessary.
