Small JavaScript library to format numbers approximately ("7.5K", "280M", etc.)

Test specimens:
7 ==> '7'
800 ==> '800'
1000 ==> '1K'
1200 ==> '1.2K'
87821 ==> '88K'
412011 ==> '412K'
999949 ==> '999K'
999950 ==> '1M'
1000000 ==> '1M'
6123922 ==> '6.1M'
27969374 ==> '28M'
28001341 ==> '28M'
28061341 ==> '28M'
812192442 ==> '812M'
999949999 ==> '999M'
999950000 ==> '1B'
1000000000 ==> '1B'

Notes:
- Supports negative values too
- Now with options for unit names (e.g. instead of "B", could use "G" or "&nbsp;billion")
- Won't format to sub-integer values for now (0.4 becomes "0", 0.8 becomes "1")
