SYNOPSIS
     use Number::Format::Metric qw(format_metric);

     format_metric(14     , {base=>10});               # => "14"
     format_metric(12000  , {base=> 2, precision=>1}); # => "11.7K"
     format_metric(12000  , {base=>10, precision=>1}); # => "11.7Ki"

FUNCTIONS
    None exported by default but all of them exportable.

  format_metric($num, \%opts) => STR
    Format $num using metric prefix. Locale settings are respected (this
    module uses locale). Might produce non-Latin Unicode characters (e.g. μ
    for 1e-6 prefix). Known options:

    *   base => INT (either 2 or 10, default: 2)

    *   precision => INT

    *   i_mark => BOOL (default: 1)

        Give "i" suffix to prefixes when in base 10 for K, M, G, T, and so
        on.
