The challenge
Finish the solution so that it takes an input n
(integer) and returns a string that is the decimal representation of the number grouped by commas after every 3 digits.
Assume: 0 <= n < 2147483647
Examples:
1 -> "1"
10 -> "10"
100 -> "100"
1000 -> "1,000"
10000 -> "10,000"
100000 -> "100,000"
1000000 -> "1,000,000"
35235235 -> "35,235,235"
The solution in Javascript
Option 1:
function groupByCommas(n) {
return n.toLocaleString()
}
Option 2:
function groupByCommas(n) {
return n.toString().replace(/\B(?=(\d{3})+(?!\d))/g, ",");
}
Option 3:
function groupByCommas(n) {
var s = n.toString(),
r = [];
s = reverse(s);
for (var i = 0, l = s.length; i < l; i += 3) {
r.push(s.substr(i, 3));
}
return reverse(r.join(','));
}
function reverse(s) {
return s.split('').reverse().join('');
}
