In this repository, I have a problem.
I want to get historical Taiwanese Dollar (TWD) currency exchange rates among various currencies to know:
- increase and decrease currency exchange rates in the specific time
- and currency exchange rate trend prediction for the future.
The target usage of historical data is for travellers who want to find the best day to get the cheapest foreign currencies espcially Thai Baht (THB) to get the most money for travelling to Taiwan.
