number_si() automatically scales and labels with the best SI prefix, "K" for values $$\ge$$ 10e3, "M" for $$\ge$$ 10e6, "B" for $$\ge$$ 10e9, and "T" for $$\ge$$ 10e12.

label_number_si(accuracy = 1, unit = NULL, sep = NULL, ...)

## Arguments

accuracy A number to round to. Use (e.g.) 0.01 to show 2 decimal places of precision. If NULL, the default, uses a heuristic that should ensure breaks have the minimum number of digits needed to show the difference between adjacent values. Applied to rescaled data. Optional units specifier. Separator between number and SI unit. Defaults to " " if units is supplied, and "" if not. Other arguments passed on to base::format().

## Value

All label_() functions return a "labelling" function, i.e. a function that takes a vector x and returns a character vector of length(x) giving a label for each input value.

Labelling functions are designed to be used with the labels argument of ggplot2 scales. The examples demonstrate their use with x scales, but they work similarly for all scales, including those that generate legends rather than axes.

Other labels for continuous scales: label_bytes, label_dollar, label_number_auto, label_ordinal, label_parse, label_percent, label_pvalue, label_scientific
Other labels for log scales: label_bytes, label_scientific
