Re: Integer to Money format

in reply to Integer to Money format

Whenever I see "format" and "number", I think of... Number::Format :)

use warnings;
use strict;
use Number::Format qw(format_picture);

print format_picture(4123456789, '##,##,##,##,##,##,###'), "\n";

__END__

        4,12,34,56,789

You could consider this as an alternative to regular expressions. One disadvantage is that format_picture forces you to know the upper bound on your number's length.

I don't. But then again I'm unfairly biased for reasons that I explained at Re (tilly) 2: decimal placement.
