People here in India are more used to counting money in Lakhs & Crores .. so here is the code
for formatting the commas with thousands for the first time and then with hundred multiples from
there after.
Ex: 1234567 -> 12,34,567
<?php
function makecomma($input)
{
// This function is written by some anonymous person - I got it from Google
if(strlen($input)<=2)
{ return $input; }
$length=substr($input,0,strlen($input)-2);
$formatted_input = makecomma($length).",".substr($input,-2);
return $formatted_input;
}
function formatInIndianStyle($num){
// This is my function
$pos = strpos((string)$num, ".");
if ($pos === false) { $decimalpart="00";}
else { $decimalpart= substr($num, $pos+1, 2); $num = substr($num,0,$pos); }
if(strlen($num)>3 & strlen($num) <= 12){
$last3digits = substr($num, -3 );
$numexceptlastdigits = substr($num, 0, -3 );
$formatted = makecomma($numexceptlastdigits);
$stringtoreturn = $formatted.",".$last3digits.".".$decimalpart ;
}elseif(strlen($num)<=3){
$stringtoreturn = $num.".".$decimalpart ;
}elseif(strlen($num)>12){
$stringtoreturn = number_format($num, 2);
}
if(substr($stringtoreturn,0,2)=="-,"){$stringtoreturn =
"-".substr($stringtoreturn,2 );}
return $stringtoreturn;
}
$num = 1234567;
echo formatInIndianStyle($num);
?>
