# minimumIntegerDigits

The minimum number of digits before the decimal separator.

## Declaration

```swift
var minimumIntegerDigits: Int { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion By default, this property is set to 0. The following code demonstrates the effect of setting minimumIntegerDigits when formatting a number: var numberFormatter = NumberFormatter()

numberFormatter.minimumIntegerDigits = 0 // default numberFormatter.string(from: 123) // 123

numberFormatter.minimumIntegerDigits = 5 numberFormatter.string(from: 123) // 00123
