# Number Formatting

PinnaPrison formats large numbers (balances, prices, gains) through `format.yml`. There are two styles: **abbreviated** (`1.5M`) and **pretty** (`1,500,000`).

```yaml
default: 'abbreviated' # abbreviated or pretty

pretty:
  separator: ","

abbreviated:
  thousands: "k"
  millions: "M"
  billions: "B"
  trillions: "T"
  quadrillions: "Qa"
  quintillions: "Qi"
  # … all the way up to tredecillions and beyond
```

* **`default`** — the format used by the default placeholder/notation (`abbreviated` or `pretty`).
* **`pretty.separator`** — the thousands separator used by the pretty style.
* **`abbreviated.*`** — the suffix used for each magnitude. Rename them freely (e.g. set `millions: "Mil"`).

## Using the formats in placeholders

Any number-returning placeholder supports three suffixes:

| Suffix              | Style                                 | Example output |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------- | -------------- |
| `_formatted`        | the `default` style from `format.yml` | `1.5M`         |
| `_formatted_pretty` | always pretty                         | `1,500,000`    |
| `_formatted_abbrev` | always abbreviated                    | `1.5M`         |

Example:

```yaml
'&7Balance: &a%pinnaprison_currency_balance_money_formatted%'
```

You can also format an arbitrary number on the fly:

```
%pinnaprison_notation_1500000%          -> 1.5M (default style)
%pinnaprison_notation_pretty_1500000%   -> 1,500,000
%pinnaprison_notation_abbrev_1500000%   -> 1.5M
%pinnaprison_calc_5*1000_formatted%     -> 5k
```

See the [Placeholders](/p/pinnaprison/reference/placeholders.md) reference for the full list.
