Parts of Numbers
Table F-1 describes the characters that
represent parts of a number. They are used by the format-number() function and by the
<xsl:decimal-format>
element.
Table F-1. Number formatting codes
| Code | Meaning |
# | Represents a digit. Trailing or leading zeroes are not
displayed. Formatting the number 4.0 with the string
"#.##" returns the string
"4". |
0 | Represents a digit. Unlike the #
character, the 0 always displays a zero. Formatting the number
4.1 with the string "#.00" returns the
string "4.10". |
. | Represents the decimal point. |
- | Represents the minus sign. |
, | Is the grouping separator. |
; | Separates the positive-number pattern from the negative-number pattern. |
% | Indicates that a number should be displayed as a
percentage. The value is multiplied by 100, and then displayed
as a percentage. Formatting the number .76
with the string "##%" returns the string
"76%". |
\u2030 | Is the Unicode character for the per-thousand
(per-mille) sign. The value will be multiplied by 1000, and
then displayed as a per mille. Formatting the number
.768 with the string
"###\u2030" returns the string
"768‰". |
