Numbers
Generally, one to nine are written as words. Anything larger than nine should be written as a numeral (10, 11, and so on). Use commas to separate thousand units: 1,000.
Exceptions to the above are:
- When starting a sentence.
- In the same sentence as higher numbers.
- In headings, buttons, and wherever space is very limited (not subheadings).
- In version numbers, dates, and times.
- Abbreviated units of measurement.
- Percentages.
Never start a sentence with a digit.
