Format a number as 2.5K if a thousand or more, otherwise 900

Question

I need to show a currency value in the format of 1K of equal to one thousand, or 1.1K, 1.2K, 1.9K etc, if its not an even thousands, otherwise if under a thousand, display normal 500, 100, 250 etc, using JavaScript to format the number?

Answer 1

A more generalized version:

function nFormatter(num, digits) {
  const lookup = [
    { value: 1, symbol: "" },
    { value: 1e3, symbol: "k" },
    { value: 1e6, symbol: "M" },
    { value: 1e9, symbol: "G" },
    { value: 1e12, symbol: "T" },
    { value: 1e15, symbol: "P" },
    { value: 1e18, symbol: "E" }
  ];
  const rx = /\.0+$|(\.[0-9]*[1-9])0+$/;
  var item = lookup.slice().reverse().find(function(item) {
    return num >= item.value;
  });
  return item ? (num / item.value).toFixed(digits).replace(rx, "$1") + item.symbol : "0";
}

/*
 * Tests
 */
const tests = [
  { num: 0, digits: 1 },
  { num: 12, digits: 1 },
  { num: 1234, digits: 1 },
  { num: 100000000, digits: 1 },
  { num: 299792458, digits: 1 },
  { num: 759878, digits: 1 },
  { num: 759878, digits: 0 },
  { num: 123, digits: 1 },
  { num: 123.456, digits: 1 },
  { num: 123.456, digits: 2 },
  { num: 123.456, digits: 4 }
];
tests.forEach(function(test) {
  console.log("nFormatter(" + test.num + ", " + test.digits + ") = " + nFormatter(test.num, test.digits));
});

Answer 2

Sounds like this should work for you:

function kFormatter(num) {
    return Math.abs(num) > 999 ? Math.sign(num)*((Math.abs(num)/1000).toFixed(1)) + 'k' : Math.sign(num)*Math.abs(num)
}
    
console.log(kFormatter(1200)); // 1.2k
console.log(kFormatter(-1200)); // -1.2k
console.log(kFormatter(900)); // 900
console.log(kFormatter(-900)); // -900

Answer 3

ES2020 adds support for this in Intl.NumberFormat Using notation as follows:

let formatter = Intl.NumberFormat('en', { notation: 'compact' });
// example 1
let million = formatter.format(1e6);
// example 2
let billion = formatter.format(1e9);
// print
console.log(million == '1M', billion == '1B');

Note as shown above, that the second example produces 1B instead of 1G. NumberFormat specs:

• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Intl/NumberFormat/NumberFormat
• https://tc39.es/ecma402#numberformat-objects

Note that at the moment not all browsers support ES2020, so you may need this Polyfill: https://formatjs.io/docs/polyfills/intl-numberformat

Answer 4

Here's a simple solution that avoids all the if statements (with the power of Math).

var SI_SYMBOL = ["", "k", "M", "G", "T", "P", "E"];

function abbreviateNumber(number){

    // what tier? (determines SI symbol)
    var tier = Math.log10(Math.abs(number)) / 3 | 0;

    // if zero, we don't need a suffix
    if(tier == 0) return number;

    // get suffix and determine scale
    var suffix = SI_SYMBOL[tier];
    var scale = Math.pow(10, tier * 3);

    // scale the number
    var scaled = number / scale;

    // format number and add suffix
    return scaled.toFixed(1) + suffix;
}

Further improving Salman's Answer because it returns nFormatter(33000) as 33.0K

function nFormatter(num) {
     if (num >= 1000000000) {
        return (num / 1000000000).toFixed(1).replace(/\.0$/, '') + 'G';
     }
     if (num >= 1000000) {
        return (num / 1000000).toFixed(1).replace(/\.0$/, '') + 'M';
     }
     if (num >= 1000) {
        return (num / 1000).toFixed(1).replace(/\.0$/, '') + 'K';
     }
     return num;
}

now nFormatter(33000) = 33K

Answer 6

A straight-forward approach has the best readability, and uses the least memory. No need to over-engineer with the use of regex, map objects, Math objects, for-loops, etc.

Formatting Cash value with K

const formatCash = n => {
  if (n < 1e3) return n;
  if (n >= 1e3) return +(n / 1e3).toFixed(1) + "K";
};

console.log(formatCash(2500));

Formatting Cash value with K M B T

const formatCash = n => {
  if (n < 1e3) return n;
  if (n >= 1e3 && n < 1e6) return +(n / 1e3).toFixed(1) + "K";
  if (n >= 1e6 && n < 1e9) return +(n / 1e6).toFixed(1) + "M";
  if (n >= 1e9 && n < 1e12) return +(n / 1e9).toFixed(1) + "B";
  if (n >= 1e12) return +(n / 1e12).toFixed(1) + "T";
};

console.log(formatCash(1235000));

Using negative numbers

let format;
const number = -1235000;

if (number < 0) {
  format = '-' + formatCash(-1 * number);
} else {
  format = formatCash(number);
}

Answer 8

Give Credit to Waylon Flinn if you like this

This was improved from his more elegant approach to handle negative numbers and ".0" case.

The fewer loops and "if" cases you have, the better IMO.

function abbreviateNumber(number) {
    const SI_POSTFIXES = ["", "k", "M", "G", "T", "P", "E"];
    const sign = number < 0 ? '-1' : '';
    const absNumber = Math.abs(number);
    const tier = Math.log10(absNumber) / 3 | 0;
    // if zero, we don't need a prefix
    if(tier == 0) return `${absNumber}`;
    // get postfix and determine scale
    const postfix = SI_POSTFIXES[tier];
    const scale = Math.pow(10, tier * 3);
    // scale the number
    const scaled = absNumber / scale;
    const floored = Math.floor(scaled * 10) / 10;
    // format number and add postfix as suffix
    let str = floored.toFixed(1);
    // remove '.0' case
    str = (/\.0$/.test(str)) ? str.substr(0, str.length - 2) : str;
    return `${sign}${str}${postfix}`;
}

Answer 9

this is is quite elegant.

function formatToUnits(number, precision) {
  const abbrev = ['', 'k', 'm', 'b', 't'];
  const unrangifiedOrder = Math.floor(Math.log10(Math.abs(number)) / 3)
  const order = Math.max(0, Math.min(unrangifiedOrder, abbrev.length -1 ))
  const suffix = abbrev[order];

  return (number / Math.pow(10, order * 3)).toFixed(precision) + suffix;
}

formatToUnits(12345, 2)
==> "12.35k"
formatToUnits(0, 3)
==> "0.000"

Answer 10

I think it can be one solution.

var unitlist = ["","K","M","G"];
function formatnumber(number){
   let sign = Math.sign(number);
   let unit = 0;
   
   while(Math.abs(number) >= 1000)
   {
     unit = unit + 1; 
     number = Math.floor(Math.abs(number) / 100)/10;
   }
   console.log(sign*Math.abs(number) + unitlist[unit]);
}
formatnumber(999);
formatnumber(1234);
formatnumber(12345);
formatnumber(123456);
formatnumber(1234567);
formatnumber(12345678);
formatnumber(1000);
formatnumber(-999);
formatnumber(-1234);
formatnumber(-12345);
formatnumber(-123456);
formatnumber(-1234567);
formatnumber(-12345678);

Answer 11

The simplest and easiest way of doing this is

new Intl.NumberFormat('en-IN', { 
    notation: "compact",
    compactDisplay: "short",
    style: 'currency',
    currency: 'INR'
}).format(1000).replace("T", "K")

This works for any number. Including L Cr etc.

NOTE: Not working in safari.

Answer 12

You can use the d3-format package modeled after Python Advanced String Formatting PEP3101 :

var f = require('d3-format')
console.log(f.format('.2s')(2500)) // displays "2.5k"

Answer 13

Short and generic method

You can make the COUNT_FORMATS config object as long or short as you want, depending on the range of values you testing.

// Configuration    
const COUNT_FORMATS =
[
  { // 0 - 999
    letter: '',
    limit: 1e3
  },
  { // 1,000 - 999,999
    letter: 'K',
    limit: 1e6
  },
  { // 1,000,000 - 999,999,999
    letter: 'M',
    limit: 1e9
  },
  { // 1,000,000,000 - 999,999,999,999
    letter: 'B',
    limit: 1e12
  },
  { // 1,000,000,000,000 - 999,999,999,999,999
    letter: 'T',
    limit: 1e15
  }
];
    
// Format Method:
function formatCount(value)
{
  const format = COUNT_FORMATS.find(format => (value < format.limit));

  value = (1000 * value / format.limit);
  value = Math.round(value * 10) / 10; // keep one decimal number, only if needed

  return (value + format.letter);
}

// Test:
const test = [274, 1683, 56512, 523491, 9523489, 5729532709, 9421032489032];
test.forEach(value => console.log(`${ value } >>> ${ formatCount(value) }`));

Answer 14

By eliminating the loop in @martin-sznapka solution, you will reduce the execution time by 40%.

function formatNum(num,digits) {
    let units = ['k', 'M', 'G', 'T', 'P', 'E', 'Z', 'Y'];
    let floor = Math.floor(Math.abs(num).toString().length / 3);
    let value=+(num / Math.pow(1000, floor))
    return value.toFixed(value > 1?digits:2) + units[floor - 1];

}

Speed test (200000 random samples) for different solution from this thread

Execution time: formatNum          418  ms
Execution time: kFormatter         438  ms it just use "k" no "M".."T" 
Execution time: beautify           593  ms doesnt support - negatives
Execution time: shortenLargeNumber 682  ms    
Execution time: Intl.NumberFormat  13197ms

This post is quite old but I somehow reached to this post searching for something. SO to add my input Numeral js is the one stop solution now a days. It gives a large number of methods to help formatting the numbers

http://numeraljs.com/

Answer 18

Not satisfied any of the posted solutions, so here's my version:

1. Supports positive and negative numbers
2. Supports negative exponents
3. Rounds up to next exponent if possible
4. Performs bounds checking (doesn't error out for very large/small numbers)
5. Strips off trailing zeros/spaces

6. Supports a precision parameter

   function abbreviateNumber(number,digits=2) {
     var expK = Math.floor(Math.log10(Math.abs(number)) / 3);
     var scaled = number / Math.pow(1000, expK);
   
     if(Math.abs(scaled.toFixed(digits))>=1000) { // Check for rounding to next exponent
       scaled /= 1000;
       expK += 1;
     }
   
     var SI_SYMBOLS = "apμm kMGTPE";
     var BASE0_OFFSET = SI_SYMBOLS.indexOf(' ');
   
     if (expK + BASE0_OFFSET>=SI_SYMBOLS.length) { // Bound check
       expK = SI_SYMBOLS.length-1 - BASE0_OFFSET;
       scaled = number / Math.pow(1000, expK);
     }
     else if (expK + BASE0_OFFSET < 0) return 0;  // Too small

Adding on the top answer, this will give 1k for 1000 instead of 1.0k

function kFormatter(num) {

Answer 22

• Support negative number
• Checking for !isFinite
• Change ' K M G T P E Z Y' to ' K M' if you want the max unit is M
• Option for base ( 1K = 1000 / 1K = 1024 )

Number.prototype.prefix = function (precision, base) {

  var units = ' K M G T P E Z Y'.split(' ');

  if (typeof precision === 'undefined') {

  var power = Math.floor(Math.log(Math.abs(this)) / Math.log(base));
  // Make sure not larger than max prefix
  power = Math.min(power, units.length - 1);

  const t = Math.abs(tier);

  const scale = Math.pow(10, tier * 3);

  return {

Answer 26

I came up with a very code golfed one, and it is very short!

var beautify=n=>((Math.log10(n)/3|0)==0)?n:Number((n/Math.pow(10,(Math.log10(n)/3|0)*3)).toFixed(1))+["","K","M","B","T",][Math.log10(n)/3|0];

console.log(beautify(1000))
console.log(beautify(10000000))

Answer 27

Further improving Salman's Answer because of the cases like nFormatter(999999,1) that returns 1000K.

function formatNumberWithMetricPrefix(num, digits = 1) {
  const si = [
    {value: 1e18, symbol: 'E'},
    {value: 1e15, symbol: 'P'},
    {value: 1e12, symbol: 'T'},
    {value: 1e9, symbol: 'G'},
    {value: 1e6, symbol: 'M'},
    {value: 1e3, symbol: 'k'},
    {value: 0, symbol: ''},
  ];
  const rx = /\.0+$|(\.[0-9]*[1-9])0+$/;
  function divideNum(divider) {
    return (num / (divider || 1)).toFixed(digits);
  }

  let i = si.findIndex(({value}) => num >= value);
  if (+divideNum(si[i].value) >= 1e3 && si[i - 1]) {
    i -= 1;
  }
  const {value, symbol} = si[i];
  return divideNum(value).replace(rx, '$1') + symbol;
}

Supports up to Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER and down to Number.MIN_SAFE_INTEGER

function abbreviateThousands(value) {
  const num = Number(value)
  const absNum = Math.abs(num)
  const sign = Math.sign(num)
  const numLength = Math.round(absNum).toString().length
  const symbol = ['K', 'M', 'B', 'T', 'Q']
  const symbolIndex = Math.floor((numLength - 1) / 3) - 1
  const abbrv = symbol[symbolIndex] || symbol[symbol.length - 1]
  let divisor = 0
  if (numLength > 15) divisor = 1e15
  else if (numLength > 12) divisor = 1e12
  else if (numLength > 9) divisor = 1e9
  else if (numLength > 6) divisor = 1e6
  else if (numLength > 3) divisor = 1e3
  else return num
  return `${((sign * absNum) / divisor).toFixed(divisor && 1)}${abbrv}`
}

console.log(abbreviateThousands(234523452345)) // 234.5b (billion)
console.log(abbreviateThousands(Number.MIN_SAFE_INTEGER)) // -9.0q (quadrillion)

Answer 31

I decided to expand a lot on @Novellizator's answer here to meet my needs. I wanted a flexible function to handle most of my formatting needs without external libraries.

Features

• Option to use order suffixes (k, M, etc.)
  • Option to specify a custom list of order suffixes to use
  • Option to constrain the min and max order
• Control over the number of decimal places
• Automatic order-separating commas
• Optional percent or dollar formatting
• Control over what to return in the case of non-numeric input
• Works on negative and infinite numbers

Examples

let x = 1234567.8;
formatNumber(x);  // '1,234,568'
formatNumber(x, {useOrderSuffix: true});  // '1M'
formatNumber(x, {useOrderSuffix: true, decimals: 3, maxOrder: 1});  // '1,234.568k'
formatNumber(x, {decimals: 2, style: '$'});  // '$1,234,567.80'

x = 10.615;
formatNumber(x, {style: '%'});  // '1,062%'
formatNumber(x, {useOrderSuffix: true, decimals: 1, style: '%'});  // '1.1k%'
formatNumber(x, {useOrderSuffix: true, decimals: 5, style: '%', minOrder: 2});  // '0.00106M%'

formatNumber(-Infinity);  // '-∞'
formatNumber(NaN);  // ''
formatNumber(NaN, {valueIfNaN: NaN});  // NaN

Function

/*
 * Return the given number as a formatted string.  The default format is a plain
 * integer with thousands-separator commas.  The optional parameters facilitate
 * other formats:
 *   - decimals = the number of decimals places to round to and show
 *   - valueIfNaN = the value to show for non-numeric input
 *   - style
 *     - '%': multiplies by 100 and appends a percent symbol
 *     - '$': prepends a dollar sign
 *   - useOrderSuffix = whether to use suffixes like k for 1,000, etc.
 *   - orderSuffixes = the list of suffixes to use
 *   - minOrder and maxOrder allow the order to be constrained.  Examples:
 *     - minOrder = 1 means the k suffix should be used for numbers < 1,000
 *     - maxOrder = 1 means the k suffix should be used for numbers >= 1,000,000
 */
function formatNumber(number, {
    decimals = 0,
    valueIfNaN = '',
    style = '',
    useOrderSuffix = false,
    orderSuffixes = ['', 'k', 'M', 'B', 'T'],
    minOrder = 0,
    maxOrder = Infinity
  } = {}) {

  let x = parseFloat(number);

  if (isNaN(x))
    return valueIfNaN;

  if (style === '%')
    x *= 100.0;

  let order;
  if (!isFinite(x) || !useOrderSuffix)
    order = 0;
  else if (minOrder === maxOrder)
    order = minOrder;
  else {
    const unboundedOrder = Math.floor(Math.log10(Math.abs(x)) / 3);
    order = Math.max(
      0,
      minOrder,
      Math.min(unboundedOrder, maxOrder, orderSuffixes.length - 1)
    );
  }

  const orderSuffix = orderSuffixes[order];
  if (order !== 0)
    x /= Math.pow(10, order * 3);

  return (style === '$' ? '$' : '') +
    x.toLocaleString(
      'en-US',
      {
        style: 'decimal',
        minimumFractionDigits: decimals,
        maximumFractionDigits: decimals
      }
    ) +
    orderSuffix +
    (style === '%' ? '%' : '');
}

Answer 32

Wow there are so many answers on here. I thought I would give you how I solved it as it seemed to be the easiest to read, handles negative numbers, and goes out far in the kilo number range for JavaScript. It also would be easy to change to what you want or extended even farther.

const symbols = [
  { value: 1, symbol: '' },
  { value: 1e3, symbol: 'k' },
  { value: 1e6, symbol: 'M' },
  { value: 1e9, symbol: 'G' },
  { value: 1e12, symbol: 'T' },
  { value: 1e15, symbol: 'P' },
  { value: 1e18, symbol: 'E' }
];

function numberFormatter(num, digits) {
  const numToCheck = Math.abs(num);
  for (let i = symbols.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
    if (numToCheck >= symbols[i].value) {
      const newNumber = (num / symbols[i].value).toFixed(digits);
      return `${newNumber}${symbols[i].symbol}`;
    }
  }
  return '0';
}

const tests = [
  { num: 1234, digits: 1 },
  { num: 100000000, digits: 1 },
  { num: 299792458, digits: 1 },
  { num: 759878, digits: 1 },
  { num: -759878, digits: 0 },
  { num: 123, digits: 1 },
  { num: 123.456, digits: 1 },
  { num: -123.456, digits: 2 },
  { num: 123.456, digits: 4 }
];
for (let i = 0; i < tests.length; i++) {
  console.log(`numberFormatter(${tests[i].num}, ${tests[i].digits})=${numberFormatter(tests[i].num, tests[i].digits)}`);
}

Answer 33

Here is my version of Waylon Flinn's answer. This removes the .0 and fixes an undefined when the tier is not exactly an integer.

const SI_SYMBOL = ['', 'k', 'M', 'G', 'T', 'P', 'E'];

abbreviateNumber(num) {
    const tier = Math.floor(Math.log10(num) / 3) || 0;
    let result = '' + num;
    // if zero, we don't need a suffix
    if (tier > 0) {
      // get suffix and determine scale
      const suffix = SI_SYMBOL[tier];
      const scale = Math.pow(10, tier * 3);
      // scale the number
      const scaled = num / scale;
      // format number and add suffix
      result = scaled.toFixed(1).replace('.0', '') + suffix;
    }
    return result;
  }

Answer 34

Well, you can use the simplest way around.

$('#attrib-id').val(Number(response.column/1000000).toLocaleString()); // Million

You can use for other properties by dividing the value by the number you want like if you want to display "K" in front of a number, you should go for Number(response.column/1000), and the rest of the things accordingly.

Answer 35

A shorter alternative :

function nFormatter(num) {
    const format = [
      { value: 1e18, symbol: 'E' },
      { value: 1e15, symbol: 'P' },
      { value: 1e12, symbol: 'T' },
      { value: 1e9, symbol: 'G' },
      { value: 1e6, symbol: 'M' },
      { value: 1e3, symbol: 'k' },
      { value: 1, symbol: '' },
    ];
    const formatIndex = format.findIndex((data) => num >= data.value);
    console.log(formatIndex)
    return (num / format[formatIndex === -1? 6: formatIndex].value).toFixed(2) + format[formatIndex === -1?6: formatIndex].symbol;
  }
  

Answer 36

function AmountConveter(amount) {
  return Math.abs(amount) > 999
    ? Math.sign(amount) * (Math.abs(amount) / 1000).toFixed(1) + "k"
    : Math.sign(amount) * Math.abs(amount);
}

console.log(AmountConveter(1200)); // 1.2k
console.log(AmountConveter(-1200)); // -1.2k
console.log(AmountConveter(900)); // 900
console.log(AmountConveter(-900)); // -900
