## Usage Examples

**Initialize the class:**
```python
from forex_python.converter import CurrencyRates
c = CurrencyRates()
```

**List all latest currency rates for "USD":**
```python
c.get_rates('USD')
# Example output: {'INR': 83.12, 'EUR': 0.92, ...}
```

**Get conversion rate from USD to INR:**
```python
c.get_rate('USD', 'INR')
# Example output: 83.12
```

**Convert amount from USD to INR:**
```python
c.convert('USD', 'INR', 10)
# Example output: 831.2
```

**Force use of Decimal:**
```python
from decimal import Decimal
c = CurrencyRates(force_decimal=True)
c.convert('USD', 'INR', Decimal('10.45'))
# Example output: 868.75
```

**Get latest Bitcoin price:**
```python
from forex_python.bitcoin import BtcConverter
b = BtcConverter()
b.get_latest_price('USD')
# Example output: 67000.0
```

**Convert amount to Bitcoins:**
```python
b.convert_to_btc(400, 'USD')
# Example output: 0.00597
```

**Get currency symbol using currency code:**
