模板:Ntsh
Ntsh (Number Table Sorting, Hidden) is the hidden version of Nts, for correctly sorting tables by their numeric columns. It does the same as Nts, except that it doesn't display anything visible. It can be used to prefix non-numeric entries; for example, you can write {{ntsh|0}}None
to have the entry to the end of the table when sorting numerically using Nts.
What it solves
編輯To use Help:Sorting and have it function correctly, numbers must be entered without thousands separators. To enable the display of thousands separators, this template automatically creates the hidden <span style="display:none">&&&&&&&123456789.&&1230</span>
before the actual displayed number. It forces the sorting routine to use text sort on the hidden segment, which functions correctly due to the preceding ampersands (currently till 16 digits before, and 6 digits after the decimal separator).
Parameters
編輯Only one: a real number without thousand separators.
Input
編輯{{Ntsh|123456789.00123}}
Output
編輯Output sent to table
<span style="display:none">&&&&&&&123456789.&&1230</span>
No output is displayed to the user.
