Template:Format price
Format price error: cannot parse value ""
This template displays numbers typically representing prices in a pleasant way, ideally suited for articles. Numbers one thousand or greater are reduced down and rounded to a total of three digits followed by a multiplier text, and smaller numbers receive separators and exactly two digits to represent cents, which does not always happen with the {{formatnum:}} magic word.
Usage
[kulemba source]{{Format price|value|digits}}
Where:
- value: the value that will be formatted and displayed (required).
- digits: sets the digit in which a value lower than one thousand must be rounded, defaulting to "2" (cents) if unspecified.
Providing non-numeric parameters, failing to provide any parameter, or providing a negative value parameter, result all in a link to the NaN article. Despite its name, this template only handles the number-formatting, not any unit symbols – consider {{currency}} for that separate feature.
Examples
[kulemba source]
{{Format price|1.2}} = 1.20- {{Format price|456.789}} = 456.79
- {{Format price|456.789|1}} = 456.80
- {{Format price|456.789|0}} = 457
- {{Format price|456.789|-2}} = 500
-
${{Format price|1234}}= $1,234 -
${{Format price|12345}}= $12,345 -
${{Format price|123456}}= $123,456 -
${{Format price|1000000}}= $1 million -
¥{{Format price|98765432109876}}= ¥98.8 trillion -
{{Format price|7.86178E+25}} atoms= 78.6 septillion atoms
Wrong
[kulemba source]
{{Format price}} = Format price error: cannot parse value "" (empty parameter)- {{Format price||0}} = Format price error: cannot parse value "" (empty first parameter)
- {{Format price|-100}} = Format price error: cannot parse value "-100" (negative values are invalid)
- {{Format price|xyz|A}} = Format price error: cannot parse value "xyz" (only numeric values are allowed)
- {{Format price|1E+309}} = Format price error: cannot parse value "1E+309" (overflow)
