Number Format

Number Format

Format any integer provided into a string with "," (commas) in the correct places.

Example:

Kata.NumberFormat(100000); // return "100,000"
Kata.NumberFormat(5678545); // return "5,678,545"
Kata.NumberFormat(-420902); // return "-420,902"

numberFormat(100000); // return '100,000'
numberFormat(5678545); // return '5,678,545'
numberFormat(-420902); // return '-420,902'

numberFormat(100000); // return '100,000'
numberFormat(5678545); // return '5,678,545'
numberFormat(-420902); // return '-420,902'

number_format(100000); # return '100,000'
number_format(5678545); # return '5,678,545'
number_format(-420902); # return '-420,902'

number_format(100000); # return '100,000'
number_format(5678545); # return '5,678,545'
number_format(-420902); # return '-420,902'

number_format(100000); # return '100,000'
number_format(5678545); # return '5,678,545'
number_format(-420902); # return '-420,902'

Solutions

🧠 C++

#include<string>
#include <cstdlib>

std::string numberFormat(long long n)
{
  std::string res = n < 0 ? "-" : "",
  input = std::to_string(std::abs(n));

  //first write first 1-3chars
  auto iter = input.begin();
  unsigned shift = input.size()%3 ? input.size()%3 : 3 ;

  res.append(iter,iter+shift);
  iter+=shift;

 //then chunks by 3
  for(;iter< input.end(); iter+=3)
    {
      res.append(",");
      res.append(iter,iter+3);
    }

  return res;
