How to go about formatting 1200 to 1.2k in Android studio

I'd like to format following numbers into the numbers next to them with Android:

1000 to 1k 5821 to 5.8k 2000000 to 2m 7800000 to 7.8m

Solution

  • This should do the trick

    String numberString = "";
if (Math.abs(number / 1000000) > 1) {
   numberString = (number / 1000000).toString() + "m";

} else if (Math.abs(number / 1000) > 1) {
   numberString = (number / 1000).toString() + "k";

} else {
   numberString = number.toString();

}
