Format Numbers Using JavaScript

Hello friends,

Today in Developer's Blog, I will tell you the way to Format Numbers Using JavaScript.

We already have a function to format numbers in PHP, which is number_format(number,decimal_places).

So we also need a function which can format numbers in JavaScript, because a lot of times we need to calculate the cost or something and show it formatted using JavaScript.

So here's the function which will format your numbers using JavaScript.


function number_format(str) {
    var amount = new String(str);
    amount = amount.split("").reverse();

    var output = "";
    for ( var i = 0; i <= amount.length-1; i++ ){
        output = amount[i] + output;
        if ((i+1) % 3 == 0 && (amount.length-1) !== i)output = ',' + output;
    }
    return output;
}


So by this you will be able to Format Numbers Using JavaScript.

I hope this will help you and you will like it.
