NAME

Format::Util::Numbers - Miscellaneous routines to do with manipulating number format!

SYNOPSIS

    use Format::Util::Numbers qw( commas to_monetary_number_format roundnear formatnumber financialrounding);
    ...

EXPORT

roundnear

Round a number near the precision of the supplied one.

    roundnear( 0.01, 12345.678) => 12345.68

commas

Produce a more human readbale number with a provided number of decimal points

    commas(12345.679, 1) => 12,345.7

to_monetary_number_format

Produce a nice human readable number which looks like a currency

    to_monetary_number_format(123456789) => 123,456,789.00

formatnumber

This sub is used to format number as per precision defined per currency.

Use this sub only for formatting not for rounding, i.e use this in modules which are used for display purpose only i.e client facing.

DON'T USE THIS FOR CALCULATION, COMPARISON OF NUMBERS DON'T USE THIS FOR QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS

This sub accepts type i.e whether its price or amount - price e.g. ask price, bid price - amount e.g. balance, deposit/withdraw amount

and takes currency to calculate precision defined per currency.

this subs takes precision defined per currency in config file passed by ENV{FORMAT_UTIL_PRECISION}, else it defaults to precision.yml

Returns string

    formatnumber('price', 'USD', 10) => 10.00

financialrounding

This sub is used to round number as per precision defined per currency.

Use this sub only for rounding numbers thats are related to currency like price, amount, balance etc

USE THIS WHEN YOU WANT TO COMPARE NUMBERS RELATED TO CURRENCY USE THIS FOR QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS FOR NUMBER RELATED TO CURRENCY

This sub accepts type i.e whether its price or amount - price e.g. ask price, bid price - amount e.g. balance, deposit/withdraw amount

and takes currency to calculate precision defined per currency.

this subs takes precision defined per currency in config file passed by ENV{FORMAT_UTIL_PRECISION}, else it defaults to precision.yml

Returns number

    financialrounding('amount', 'USD', 10.345) => 10.35

roundcommon

This sub rounds number as per precision passed, this sub should be used for numbers not related to currencies like probabilities, percentages etc

This sub use round away from zero technique, same as financial rounding, the only difference is it acccepts precision as shown below and has no currency precision

Acceptable precision values format example:

0 1 1e-4 0.0001

This sub only supports rounding to one tenths, hundredths, thousandths and so on. It does not support rounding to two, three tenths, hundredths or so, use roundnear for that.

This sub is created as replacement for roundnear as roundnear for small numbers it does round away from zero, for numbers with more significant digits it's sort-of random

Returns number

    roundcommon(0.01, 10.234) => 10.23

get_precision_config

This is used get complete currency precision config.
