PHP Money Fomat

I have a full int value already with the decimals and I want to convert like this in PHP

500 -> 5,00$
 5070 -> 50,70$
 50070 -> 500,70$
 500000 -> 5.000,00$

so the format should be like this xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,xx$

any function for that?

Solution

  • number_format() can do the job.

    It works like this : string number_format(float $number, int $decimals = 0, string $dec_point = ".", string $thousands_sep = ",")

    number

    The number being formatted.

    decimals

    Sets the number of decimal points.

    dec_point

    Sets the separator for the decimal point.

    thousands_sep

    Sets the thousands separator.

    In your case, that could be $myMoney = number_format($cents / 100, 2, ",", ".") . "$";
