Abstract

number_exporting formats a given numeric value (numeric_value) based on user specifications. It outputs the formatted number into a LaTeX compatible .tex file that can then called directly into the paper. The function can handle absolute values, percentages, and specific decimal formatting, making it suitable for saving numeric data for reports or publications in LaTeX format and automatized the description of regression coefficients in the main text of a paper.
