It takes a number and optional decimal precision, returning a string representation similar to what social platforms display for follower counts.\n\nThe package has no external dependencies and works by dividing numbers by magnitude thresholds and formatting the result with appropriate suffixes. It handles both positive and negative numbers. However, the project has been abandoned since its last release in August 2018, with no active maintenance or updates to address compatibility with newer Python versions.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need simple number abbreviation and can accept an unmaintained package. The code is straightforward with no dependencies, so it's unlikely to break suddenly, but don't expect bug fixes or Python version updates. For new projects, consider whether a maintained alternative better fits your risk tolerance."},"id":"numerize","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/numerize","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/numerize.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/numerize/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2018-08-14","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"numerize","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Convert large numbers into readable numbers for humans."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":90195,"position":13612,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.12"}
