What are the best practices for ensuring that numbers are displayed in their full format rather than in scientific notation in PHP applications?

When dealing with large numbers in PHP, they may be displayed in scientific notation by default. To ensure that numbers are displayed in their full format, you can use the number_format() function with a high precision parameter to specify the number of decimal places to show. 

$number = 1234567890.123456789;
$formatted_number = number_format($number, 10);
echo $formatted_number;
