+Visualizations X and Y axis values are formatted with D3. Below you can find examples for the various format options.

+## Numbers
+
+The general form of a number specification is:
+
+```
+[​[fill]align][sign][symbol][0][width][,][.precision][~][type]
+```
+
+*fill* can be any character. The  presence of a fill character is signaled by the *align* character following it, which must be one of the following:
+
+* `>` - Forces the field to be right-aligned within the available space. (Default behavior).
+* `<` - Forces the field to be left-aligned within the available space.
+* `^` - Forces the field to be centered within the available space.
+* `=` - like `>`, but with any sign and symbol to the left of any padding.
+
+*sign* can be:
+
+* `-` - nothing for zero or positive and a minus sign for negative. (Default behavior.)
+* `+` - a plus sign for zero or positive and a minus sign for negative.
+* `(` - nothing for zero or positive and parentheses for negative.
+* ` ` (space) - a space for zero or positive and a minus sign for negative.
+
+*symbol* can be:
+
+* `$` - apply currency symbols per the locale definition.
+* `#` - for binary, octal, or hexadecimal notation, prefix by `0b`, `0o`, or `0x`, respectively.
+
+The *zero* (`0`) option enables zero-padding; this implicitly sets *fill* to `0` and *align* to `=`. The *width* defines the minimum field width; if not specified, then the width will be determined by the content. The *comma* (`,`) option enables the use of a group separator, such as a comma for thousands.
+
+Depending on the *type*, the *precision* either indicates the number of digits that follow the decimal point (types `f` and `%`), or the number of significant digits (types `​`, `e`, `g`, `r`, `s` and `p`). If the precision is not specified, it defaults to 6 for all types except `​` (none), which defaults to 12. Precision is ignored for integer formats (types `b`, `o`, `d`, `x`, and `X`) and character data (type `c`).
+
+The `~` option trims insignificant trailing zeros across all format types. This is most commonly used in conjunction with types `r`, `e`, `s` and `%`.
+
+The available *type* values are:
+
+* `e` - exponent notation.
+* `f` - fixed point notation.
+* `g` - either decimal or exponent notation, rounded to significant digits.
+* `r` - decimal notation, rounded to significant digits.
+* `s` - decimal notation with an "SI prefix" (`k`, `M`, `G`, ...), rounded to significant digits.
+* `%` - multiply by 100, and then decimal notation with a percent sign.
+* `p` - multiply by 100, round to significant digits, and then decimal notation with a percent sign.
+* `b` - binary notation, rounded to integer.
+* `o` - octal notation, rounded to integer.
+* `d` - decimal notation, rounded to integer.
+* `x` - hexadecimal notation, using lower-case letters, rounded to integer.
+* `X` - hexadecimal notation, using upper-case letters, rounded to integer.
+* `c` - character data, for a string of text.
+
+The type `​` (none) is also supported as shorthand for `~g` (with a default precision of 12 instead of 6), and the type `n` is shorthand for `,g`. For the `g`, `n` and `​` (none) types, decimal notation is used if the resulting string would have *precision* or fewer digits; otherwise, exponent notation is used. For example:
+
+## Time
+
+The time format string may contain the following directives:
+
+* `%a` - abbreviated weekday name.*
+* `%A` - full weekday name.*
+* `%b` - abbreviated month name.*
+* `%B` - full month name.*
+* `%c` - the locale’s date and time, such as `%x, %X`.*
+* `%d` - zero-padded day of the month as a decimal number [01,31].
+* `%e` - space-padded day of the month as a decimal number [ 1,31]; equivalent to `%_d`.
+* `%f` - microseconds as a decimal number [000000, 999999].
+* `%g` - ISO 8601 week-based year without century as a decimal number [00,99].
+* `%G` - ISO 8601 week-based year with century as a decimal number.
+* `%H` - hour (24-hour clock) as a decimal number [00,23].
+* `%I` - hour (12-hour clock) as a decimal number [01,12].
+* `%j` - day of the year as a decimal number [001,366].
+* `%m` - month as a decimal number [01,12].
+* `%M` - minute as a decimal number [00,59].
+* `%L` - milliseconds as a decimal number [000, 999].
+* `%p` - either AM or PM.*
+* `%q` - quarter of the year as a decimal number [1,4].
+* `%Q` - milliseconds since UNIX epoch.
+* `%s` - seconds since UNIX epoch.
+* `%S` - second as a decimal number [00,61].
+* `%u` - Monday-based (ISO 8601) weekday as a decimal number [1,7].
+* `%U` - Sunday-based week of the year as a decimal number [00,53].
+* `%V` - ISO 8601 week of the year as a decimal number [01, 53].
+* `%w` - Sunday-based weekday as a decimal number [0,6].
+* `%W` - Monday-based week of the year as a decimal number [00,53].
+* `%x` - the locale’s date, such as `%-m/%-d/%Y`.*
+* `%X` - the locale’s time, such as `%-I:%M:%S %p`.*
+* `%y` - year without century as a decimal number [00,99].
+* `%Y` - year with century as a decimal number, such as `1999`.
+* `%Z` - time zone offset, such as `-0700`, `-07:00`, `-07`, or `Z`.
+* `%%` - a literal percent sign (`%`).
+
+Directives marked with an asterisk (\*) may be affected by the locale definition.
+
+The `%` sign indicating a directive may be immediately followed by a padding modifier:
+
+* `0` - zero-padding
+* `_` - space-padding
+* `-` - disable padding
+
+If no padding modifier is specified, the default is `0` for all directives except `%e`, which defaults to `_`.
