# icu_decimal [![crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/icu_decimal)](https://crates.io/crates/icu_decimal)
Formatting basic decimal numbers.
This module is published as its own crate ([`icu_decimal`](https://docs.rs/icu_decimal/latest/icu_decimal/))
and as part of the [`icu`](https://docs.rs/icu/latest/icu/) crate. See the latter for more details on the ICU4X project.
Support for currencies, measurement units, and compact notation is planned. To track progress,
follow [icu4x#275](https://github.com/unicode-org/icu4x/issues/275).
## Examples
### Format a number with Bangla digits
```rust
use fixed_decimal::FixedDecimal;
use icu::decimal::FixedDecimalFormatter;
use icu::locid::locale;
use writeable::assert_writeable_eq;
let fdf = FixedDecimalFormatter::try_new(
&locale!("bn").into(),
Default::default(),
)
.expect("locale should be present");
let fixed_decimal = FixedDecimal::from(1000007);
assert_writeable_eq!(fdf.format(&fixed_decimal), "১০,০০,০০৭");
```
### Format a number with digits after the decimal separator
```rust
use fixed_decimal::FixedDecimal;
use icu::decimal::FixedDecimalFormatter;
use icu::locid::Locale;
use writeable::assert_writeable_eq;
let fdf =
FixedDecimalFormatter::try_new(&Locale::UND.into(), Default::default())
.expect("locale should be present");
let fixed_decimal = FixedDecimal::from(200050).multiplied_pow10(-2);
assert_writeable_eq!(fdf.format(&fixed_decimal), "2,000.50");
```
#### Format a number using an alternative numbering system
Numbering systems specified in the `-u-nu` subtag will be followed as long as the locale has
symbols for that numbering system.
```rust
use fixed_decimal::FixedDecimal;
use icu::decimal::FixedDecimalFormatter;
use icu::locid::locale;
use writeable::assert_writeable_eq;
let fdf = FixedDecimalFormatter::try_new(
&locale!("th-u-nu-thai").into(),
Default::default(),
)
.expect("locale should be present");
let fixed_decimal = FixedDecimal::from(1000007);
assert_writeable_eq!(fdf.format(&fixed_decimal), "๑,๐๐๐,๐๐๗");
```
