note 102876 added to function.money-format

Indian Money Format: @swapnet : Your function is generating error. Moreover, it doesn't allow Paisa (decimal). So I changed it a bit: function convertcash($number){ list($num,$decimal)=explode('.', $number); if(strlen($num)>3){ $lastthree = substr($num, strlen($num)-3, strlen($num)); $restunits = substr($num, 0, strlen($num)-3); // extracts the last three digits $restunits = (strlen($restunits)%2 == 1)?"0".$restunits:$restunits; // explodes the remaining digits in 2's formats, adds a zero in the beginning to maintain the 2's grouping. $expunit = str_split($restunits, 2); if(sizeof($expunit) >= 1) { $explrestunits .= (int)$expunit[0].","; // int typecaste to get rid of the possible leading zero. } for($i=1; $i<sizeof($expunit); $i++){ $explrestunits .= $expunit[$i].","; // creates each of the 2's group and adds a comma to the end } $thecash = $explrestunits.$lastthree; } else { $thecash = $num; } if ($decimal) { $cash = $thecash . "." . $decimal; } else { $cash = $thecash . ".00"; } return $cash; // writes the final format where $currency is the currency symbol. } $amount="12345678"; convertcash($amount); will produce 1,23,45,678.00 $amount="12345678.12"; convertcash($amount); will produce 1,23,45,678.12 Thanks for your initial function though. Hope this helps. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 59.184.186.4 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.money-format.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/102876 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102876/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102876/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102876/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102876/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102876/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102876/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102876 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/102876 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
