Suffixation of decimal numbers

From Rosetta Code
Task
Suffixation of decimal numbers
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

Suffixation:   a letter or a group of letters added to the end of a word to change its meaning.

      ─────   or, as used herein   ─────

Suffixation:   the addition of a metric or "binary" metric suffix to a number, with/without rounding.


Task

Write a function(s) to append (if possible)   a metric   or   a "binary" metric   suffix to a number   (displayed in decimal).

The number may be rounded   (as per user specification)   (via shortening of the number when the number of digits past the decimal point are to be used).


Task requirements
  •   write a function (or functions) to add   (if possible)   a suffix to a number
  •   the function(s) should be able to express the number (possibly with a suffix) in as many decimal digits as specified
  •   the sign should be preserved   (if present)
  •   the number may have commas within the number   (the commas need not be preserved)
  •   the number may have a decimal point and/or an exponent as in:   -123.7e-01
  •   the suffix that might be appended should be in uppercase;   however, the   i   should be in lowercase
  •   support:
  •   the            metric suffixes:   K  M  G  T  P  E  Z  Y  X  W  V  U
  •   the binary metric suffixes:   Ki Mi Gi Ti Pi Ei Zi Yi Xi Wi Vi Ui
  •   the (full name) suffix:   googol   (lowercase)   (equal to 1e100)     (optional)
  •   a number of decimal digits past the decimal point   (with rounding).   The default is to display all significant digits
  •   validation of the (supplied/specified) arguments is optional but recommended
  •   display   (with identifying text):
  •   the original number   (with identifying text)
  •   the number of digits past the decimal point being used   (or none, if not specified)
  •   the type of suffix being used   (metric or "binary" metric)
  •   the (new) number with the appropriate   (if any)   suffix
  •   all output here on this page

Perl 6

Works with: Rakudo version 2018.09

Pass in a number string, optionally a type, and optionally the number of digits to round to.

The types supported are B, M & G for binary, metric or gigantic. (At this point, the only gigantic unit is googol, so maybe it stands for googol. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )

If no type is specified, M (metric) is assumed.

If you desire the number to be rounded, pass in a number representing the placed past the decimal to round to. If you pass in a negative number for rounding, it will round to a negative number of places past the decimal.

<lang perl6>sub sufficate ($val is copy, $type is copy = 'M', $round is copy = Any) {

  if +$type ~~ Int { $round = $type; $type = 'M' }
  my $s = ;
  if $val.substr(0,1) eq '-' { $s = '-'; $val.=substr(1) }
  $val.=subst(',', , :g);
  if $val ~~ m:i/'e'/ {
      my ($m,$e) = $val.split(/<[eE]>/);
      $val = ($e < 0)
          ?? $m * FatRat.new(1,10**-$e)
          !! $m * 10**$e;
  }
  my %s = do given $type {
      when 'M' { <K M G T P E Z Y X W V U> Z=> (1000, * * 1000 … *) }
      when 'B' { <Ki Mi Gi Ti Pi Ei Zi Yi Xi Wi Vi Ui> Z=> (1024, * * 1024 … *) }
      when 'G' { googol => 10**100 }
      default { return 'What we have here is a failure to communicate...' }

      default { %s.sort(*.value).first({$val.abs/%s{$_.key} < min %s.values}).key}
  }
  $round.defined
      ?? $s ~ comma(($val.abs/%s{$k}).round(10**-$round)) ~ $k

Phix

The builtin routine file_size_k() handles KB/MB/GB/TB suffixes.

Note that you simply cannot "display all significant digits" when using IEEE-754, at least with any fraction that is not an exact sum of half, quarter, etc, so for that reason this uses bigatom, since that can hold numbers with absolute accuracy. <lang Phix>include builtins/bigatom.e
