== Description

Return an optional value representing the requested precision unless the status is not `e_STATE_POSTPROCESSED` in which case throw a `bsl::format_error` exception indicating that error. Note that the returned type is capable of representing more than just an optional integer, but after preprocessing it will have only two possible states: no value, or an integer value.

== Return Value

the postprocessed precision as a numeric value (default or integer)
