name numprint
category Package
shortdesc Print numbers with separators and exponent if necessary.
longdesc The package numprint prints numbers with a separator every three
longdesc digits and converts numbers given as 12345.6e789 to 12\,345,6\cdot
longdesc 10^{789}. Numbers are printed in the current mode (text or math)
longdesc in order to use the correct font. Many things, including the
longdesc decimal sign, the thousand separator, as well as the product sign
longdesc can be changed by the user, e.g., to reach 12,345.6\times
longdesc 10^{789}. If an optional argument is given it is printed upright
longdesc as unit. Numbers can be rounded to a given number of digits. The
longdesc package supports an automatic, language-dependent change of the
longdesc number format. Tabular alignment using the tabular(*), array,
longdesc tabularx, and longtable environments (similar to the dcolumn and
longdesc rccol packages) is supported using all features of numprint.
longdesc Additional text can be added before and after the formatted
longdesc number. [description copied from TeX Catalogue]
