How to break up an integer like this: 1234567 into a more humanly readable form like this: 1 234 567, when printing?
"{:_}".format(n).replace("_", ' ')
Or with underscores or commas
"{:_}".format(n)
"{:,}".format(n)
Could you give me an example? If I have a variable: n = 1234567, how exactly could I print it broken up?
I am sure there is a fancier way, but strings are like arrays, so you can loop through the characters as well(backwards in this case):
n = 1234567
def format_number(number):
string = ''
count = 0
for every_char in str(number)[::-1]:
count = count + 1
string = string + every_char
if count%3 == 0:
string = string + ' '
return string[::-1]
print(format_number(n))
Thanks for both of you.
Once Blender moves to Python 3.6, you will be able to do this:
>>> format(1234567, ",")
'1,234,567'
or this:
>>> format(1234567, "_")
'1_234_567'
