1.humanize == “1″
1000000.humanize == “1.000.000″

Deprecation warning for old-style options

tadman · Apr 9, 2009

You will get a warning if you don't define your separators as a hash:

DEPRECATION WARNING: number_with_delimiter takes an option hash instead of separate delimiter and precision arguments

So while you can still use that style, it's not without a scolding.
