var minimumFractionDigits: Int { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion By default, this property is set to 0. The following code demonstrates the effect of setting minimumFractionDigits when formatting a number: var numberFormatter = NumberFormatter() numberFormatter.minimumFractionDigits = 0 // default numberFormatter.string(from: 123.456) // 123 numberFormatter.minimumFractionDigits = 5 numberFormatter.string(from: 123.456) // 123.45600
