==== Examples

the argument is invalid.
* :raise - If true, raises +InvalidNumberError+ when

(defaults to current locale).
* :locale - Sets the locale to be used for formatting

==== Options

hash.
(e.g., 12,324). You can customize the format in the +options+
Formats a +number+ with grouped thousands using +delimiter+
