                    prefix, suffix, grouping separator, decimal separator, and leading and
                    trailing zeros. You can also configure the number of digits. You can
                    include any characters in prefixes and suffixes, including minus signs
                    or currency symbols. You can use the following symbols to specifying a
                    format. <ul class="ul bulletList">
                      <li class="li">0. One digit. Use to add leading or trailing 0s. For example, if
                        you apply custom format #,###.00 to 56375, the result is 56,375.00. </li>

                      <li class="li">#. Adds zero or one digit. Use to show digits when applicable. For
                        example, if you apply custom format #,###.## to 56375.56, the result
                        is 56,375.56.</li>

                      <li class="li">.(period). Symbol used as the decimal separator, like in the
                        number 375.56. Analytics currently only supports the decimal symbol
                        (.) as a decimal separator.</li>

                      <li class="li">,(comma). Symbol used as the grouping separator, like in 56,375.
                        Analytics currently only supports the comma symbol (,) as a grouping
                        separator. Example: ["-$#,###.00$",1]</li>
