number_to_currency(number, options = {})

Formats a number into a currency string (e.g., $13.65). You can customize the format in the options hash.

Options

:locale - Sets the locale to be used for formatting (defaults to current locale).
:precision - Sets the level of precision (defaults to 2).
:unit - Sets the denomination of the currency (defaults to “$”).
:separator - Sets the separator between the units (defaults to “.”).
:delimiter - Sets the thousands delimiter (defaults to “,”).
:format - Sets the format for non-negative numbers (defaults to “%u%n”).
```
Fields are <tt>%u</tt> for the currency, and <tt>%n</tt>
for the number.
```

:negative_format - Sets the format for negative numbers (defaults to prepending

an hyphen to the formatted number given by <tt>:format</tt>).
Accepts the same fields than <tt>:format</tt>, except
<tt>%n</tt> is here the absolute value of the number.

Examples

number_to_currency(1234567890.50)                    # => $1,234,567,890.50
number_to_currency(1234567890.506)                   # => $1,234,567,890.51

number_to_currency(-1234567890.50, :negative_format => "(%u%n)")
# => ($1,234,567,890.51)
number_to_currency(1234567890.50, :unit => "&pound;", :separator => ",", :delimiter => "")

number_to_human(number, options = {})

Pretty prints (formats and approximates) a number in a way it is more readable by humans (eg.: 1200000000 becomes “1.2 Billion”). This is useful for numbers that can get very large (and too hard to read).

See number_to_human_size if you want to print a file size.

You can also define you own unit-quantifier names if you want to use other decimal units (eg.: 1500 becomes “1.5 kilometers”, 0.150 becomes “150 milliliters”, etc). You may define a wide range of unit quantifiers, even fractional ones (centi, deci, mili, etc).

Options

:locale - Sets the locale to be used for formatting (defaults to current locale).
:precision - Sets the precision of the number (defaults to 3).
:significant - If true, precision will be the # of significant_digits. If false, the # of fractional digits (defaults to true)
:separator - Sets the separator between the fractional and integer digits (defaults to “.”).
:delimiter - Sets the thousands delimiter (defaults to “”).
:strip_insignificant_zeros - If true removes insignificant zeros after the decimal separator (defaults to true)
:units - A Hash of unit quantifier names. Or a string containing an i18n scope where to find this hash. It might have the following keys:
- integers: :unit, :ten, :hundred, :thousand, :million, :billion, :trillion, :quadrillion
- fractionals: :deci, :centi, :mili, :micro, :nano, :pico, :femto
:format - Sets the format of the output string (defaults to “%n %u”). The field types are:
```
%u  The quantifier (ex.: 'thousand')
%n  The number
```

Examples

number_to_human(123)                                          # => "123"
number_to_human(1234)                                         # => "1.23 Thousand"
number_to_human(12345)                                        # => "12.3 Thousand"
number_to_human(1234567)                                      # => "1.23 Million"
number_to_human(1234567890)                                   # => "1.23 Billion"
number_to_human(1234567890123)                                # => "1.23 Trillion"
number_to_human(1234567890123456)                             # => "1.23 Quadrillion"
number_to_human(1234567890123456789)                          # => "1230 Quadrillion"
number_to_human(489939, :precision => 2)                      # => "490 Thousand"
number_to_human(489939, :precision => 4)                      # => "489.9 Thousand"
number_to_human(1234567, :precision => 4,
                         :significant => false)               # => "1.2346 Million"
number_to_human(1234567, :precision => 1,
                         :separator => ',',
                         :significant => false)               # => "1,2 Million"

Unsignificant zeros after the decimal separator are stripped out by default (set :strip_insignificant_zeros to false to change that):

number_to_human(12345012345, :significant_digits => 6)       # => "12.345 Billion"
number_to_human(500000000, :precision => 5)                  # => "500 Million"

Custom Unit Quantifiers

You can also use your own custom unit quantifiers:

number_to_human(500000, :units => {:unit => "ml", :thousand => "lt"})  # => "500 lt"

If in your I18n locale you have:

distance:
  centi:
    one: "centimeter"
    other: "centimeters"
  unit:
    one: "meter"
    other: "meters"
  thousand:
    one: "kilometer"
    other: "kilometers"
  billion: "gazillion-distance"

Then you could do:

number_to_human(543934, :units => :distance)                              # => "544 kilometers"
number_to_human(54393498, :units => :distance)                            # => "54400 kilometers"
number_to_human(54393498000, :units => :distance)                         # => "54.4 gazillion-distance"
number_to_human(343, :units => :distance, :precision => 1)                # => "300 meters"
number_to_human(1, :units => :distance)                                   # => "1 meter"
number_to_human(0.34, :units => :distance)                                # => "34 centimeters"

number_to_human_size(number, options = {})

Formats the bytes in number into a more understandable representation (e.g., giving it 1500 yields 1.5 KB). This method is useful for reporting file sizes to users. You can customize the format in the options hash.

See number_to_human if you want to pretty-print a generic number.

Options

:locale - Sets the locale to be used for formatting (defaults to current locale).
:precision - Sets the precision of the number (defaults to 3).
:significant - If true, precision will be the # of significant_digits. If false, the # of fractional digits (defaults to true)
:separator - Sets the separator between the fractional and integer digits (defaults to “.”).
:delimiter - Sets the thousands delimiter (defaults to “”).
:strip_insignificant_zeros - If true removes insignificant zeros after the decimal separator (defaults to true)
:prefix - If :si formats the number using the SI prefix (defaults to :binary)

Examples

number_to_human_size(123)                                          # => 123 Bytes
number_to_human_size(1234)                                         # => 1.21 KB
number_to_human_size(12345)                                        # => 12.1 KB
number_to_human_size(1234567)                                      # => 1.18 MB
number_to_human_size(1234567890)                                   # => 1.15 GB

number_to_human_size(1234567, :precision => 2, :separator => ',')  # => 1,2 MB

Non-significant zeros after the fractional separator are stripped out by default (set :strip_insignificant_zeros to false to change that):

number_to_human_size(1234567890123, :precision => 5)        # => "1.1229 TB"
number_to_human_size(524288000, :precision => 5)            # => "500 MB"

number_with_precision(number, options = {})

Formats a number with the specified level of :precision (e.g., 112.32 has a precision of 2 if :significant is false, and 5 if :significant is true). You can customize the format in the options hash.

Options

:locale - Sets the locale to be used for formatting (defaults to current locale).
:precision - Sets the precision of the number (defaults to 3).
:significant - If true, precision will be the # of significant_digits. If false, the # of fractional digits (defaults to false)
:separator - Sets the separator between the fractional and integer digits (defaults to “.”).
:delimiter - Sets the thousands delimiter (defaults to “”).
:strip_insignificant_zeros - If true removes insignificant zeros after the decimal separator (defaults to false)
