Vangogh

A Ruby Gem for abstracting numbers

# Abstract numbers
Vangogh.abstract 1234
=> 1200

Vangogh.abstract 12345
=> 12000

# Abstract and abbreviate
Vangogh.abbreviate 1234
=> "1.2k"

Vangogh.abbreviate 12345
=> "12.3k"

You can also extend the numbers themselves, if you prefer:

require 'vangogh/ext'

1234.abstract
=> 1200

12345.abbreviate
"12.3k"

Heck, you can even use it via command line:

$ vangogh abstract 1234
1200

$ vangogh abbreviate 12345
12.3k

Vangogh isn't just a single-medium artist. If you pass Vangogh the path to a CSV, it'll process all numeric-looking cells, and pipe the resulting CSV to STDOUT.

$ vangogh abstract csv.csv >> output.csv

If you want to explicitly include/exclude certain fields, you can do so with the fields argument.

$ vangogh abstract csv.csv --fields foo bar >> output.csv
