Good afternoon,

One question, with Corona is it possible to make the separation of thousands with the numbers? that is, I do not get $ 123456 but $ 123,456

comma_value:

or just use the code directly:

-- == -- comma\_value(val, n) - Converts a number to a comma separated string. (http://lua-users.org/wiki/FormattingNumbers) -- val - The value to convert to comma separated string. -- == function string.comma\_value(amount) local formatted = amount while true do formatted, k = string.gsub(formatted, "^(-?%d+)(%d%d%d)", '%1,%2') if (k==0) then break end end return formatted end

print("$" .. string.comma\_value(1234567))

prints
 

$1,234,567
