Use in another Lua module

All of the above functions can be called from other Lua modules, if not Lua library function anyway. Use require(); the below code checks for errors loading it:

local lucky, FormatNum = pcall( require, "Module:FormatNum" )
if type( FormatNum ) == "table" then
    FormatNum = FormatNum.FormatNum()
else
    -- In the event of errors, FormatNum is an error message.
    return "<span class=\"error\">" .. FormatNum .. "</span>"
end

FormatNum.format(source, spec, meet)

• source: string
• spec: optional string
• meet: optional number (extension for internal padding)

FormatNum.minus(source, larger)

• source: string
• larger: optional boolean (conversion into Unicode)

FormatNum.padding(source, meet, stop)

• source: string
• meet: number
• stop: string

FormatNum.roman2number(source, suffix)

• source: string
• suffix: optional string

FormatNum.round(source, precision, method)

• source: string
• precision: number
• method: optional number

FormatNum.format(assert)
