Introduction

This crate provides a convenient Formatter to scale, round, and display numbers.

Scaling describes the usage of decimal / metric / SI unit prefixes or binary / IEC unit prefixes to increase readability; though no scaling and scientific notation are also supported.
Rounding can be done either to a specified magnitude or to a number of significant digits.
Separators can be freely adjusted. The group separator separates groups of digits every 3 digits before the decimal separator, while the decimal separator separates the integer and fractional parts of a number.
The sign behaviour can be set to only show the sign when the number is negative ("-"), which is the default, or always show the sign ("+" and "-"). The latter can be useful for highlighting differences.
By default rounding can create trailing zeros. They can optionally be removed.

Installation

The feature warn_about_problematic_separators warns using log::warn! if separators are being set with Formatter::set_separators that could lead to ambiguous formatting. It depends on the log crate and is the only dependency. If a dependencyless build should be desired, it can be disabled by specifying default-features = false in your Cargo.toml entry.

Usage

  1. Execute Formatter::new to create a new Formatter with default settings.
  2. Adjust separators, rounding, scaling, and sign behaviour as necessary using the setters.
  3. Format numbers with Formatter::format.

Rounding

Examples have scaling disabled for easier understanding.

  • Magnitude:

    • Round to digit at magnitude $10^m$.
    • Contains $m$.
    let f: scaler::Formatter = scaler::Formatter::new()

    .set_rounding(scaler::Rounding::Magnitude(-2));
assert_eq!(f.format(123.456), "123,46");

    • If no prefix for that magnitude defined: Fallback to scientific notation.
    • Contains whether or not to put space between number and unit prefix.
