Optional parameters[edit]
For two-column table output, use |disp=table
To show the total with the table option, use |total=yes
To insert a line break before the parenthetical expression, use |disp=br()
To add a prefix to the numbers, use |prefix=; for example, prefix=$
To add a suffix to the number, use |suffix=; for example, suffix= units
To pad the result with zeros to achieve the desired precision, use |pad=yes.
To specify a number n of significant figures for the percentage, use |sigfig=n.
To specify a percentage suffix (e.g. per cent) other than %, use |%=suffix, e.g. |%=per cent.
