integer = new Number(54321);
fixed = new Number(543.21);
flot = new Number(54321E-2);
p(integer.toLocaleString()); // prints <<<54321.0>>>
p(fixed.toLocaleString()); // prints <<<543.21>>>
p(flot.toLocaleString()); // prints <<<543.21>>>
p(integer.toLocaleString(16)); // prints <<<d431>>>
p(fixed.toLocaleString(16)); // prints <<<21f>>>
p(flot.toLocaleString(16)); // prints <<<21f>>>
