How to display a number as a price in a prestashop 8 template?

[zunxunz]

In earlier versions of Prestashop it used to be possible to display a number as a price using the smarty method convertPrice in a smarty template.

Example: {convertPrice price=$price|floatval}

This method does not seem to exist anymore in Prestashop 8. So, how would I display a number as a price?

{Context::getContext()->currentLocale->formatPrice($price, Context::getContext()->currency->iso_code)}

Format the price in the PHP file & assign it to the tpl file and use the same in the TP file.
