Format values left of decimal

Values to the left of the decimal are generally called 'big' since they are larger than values to the right of the decimal. format_big() lets you update the settings of a rounding_specification object (see round_spec) so that values left of the decimal will be printed with a specific format (see examples).

Usage

format_big(rspec, mark = ",", interval = 3L)

Arguments

rspec

a rounding_specification object (see round_spec).

mark

a character value used to separate number groups to the left of the decimal point. See prettyNum for more details on this. Set this input to ” to negate it's effect.

interval

a numeric value indicating the size of number groups for numbers left of the decimal.

Value

an object of class rounding_specification.

Examples

big_x <- 1234567

rspec <- format_big(round_spec(), mark = '|', interval = 3)

peri_value(big_x, rspec) # returns "1|234|567"
#> [1] "1|234|567.0"
