Note: these are just some of the possible parameter combinations:

`typescript
import { useNumberFormatters } from '@builtwithjavascript/formatters'

const lcid = 'en-US' // or return it from your i18n current locale
const numberFormatters = useNumberFormatters(lcid)

// whole number
const wholeNumberFormatter = numberFormatters.whole()
wholeNumberFormatter().format(123456789.321654) // outputs: 12,345,654,322

// decimal number (default options)
const decimalNumberFormatter = numberFormatters.decimal()
decimalNumberFormatter().format(123456789.321654) // outputs: 12,345,654,321.89

// decimal number (with min/max fraction digits parameters)
const decimalNumberFormatter = numberFormatters.decimal(3, 5) // params are (minimumFractionDigits, maximumFractionDigits)
decimalNumberFormatter().format(123456789.321654) // outputs 12,345,654,321.89235

// percent number (default options)
const percentNumberFormatter = numberFormatters.percent()
percentNumberFormatter().format(4.892345) // outputs: 489.23%

// decimal number (with min/max fraction digits parameters)
const percentNumberFormatter = numberFormatters.percent(3, 5) // params are (minimumFractionDigits, maximumFractionDigits)
percentNumberFormatter().format(4.892345) // outputs 489.2345%

// currency ('USD' with default options)
const currencyNumberFormatter = numberFormatters.currency('USD')
currencyNumberFormatter().format(12345654321.892345) // outputs: $12,345,654,321.89

// currency ('EUR' with default options)
const currencyNumberFormatter = numberFormatters.currency('EUR')
currencyNumberFormatter().format(12345654321.892345) // outputs: €12,345,654,321.89

// currency ('USD' with params currencyDisplay, minimumFractionDigits, maximumFractionDigits)
const currencyNumberFormatter = numberFormatters.currency('USD', 'code', 1, 3)
currencyNumberFormatter().format(12345654321.892345) // outputs: USD12,345,654,321.892
