}

x.toFormat()                        // 123,456,789.987654321
x.toFormat(2, 1)                    // 123,456,789.98

x.toFormat()                       // 123456789,987654321

format = {
  decimalSeparator: '.',
  groupSeparator: ' ',
  groupSize: 3,
  fractionGroupSeparator: ' ',
  fractionGroupSize : 5
}

// Pass a format object to the method call.
x.toFormat(format)                 // 123 456 789.98765 4321
x.toFormat(4, format)              // 123 456 789.9877
