What’s the best way to put commas in numbers? For example: 196483 = 196,483

Wdym put commas in numbers? Like a string?
haughty furnace
Ye
opaque spindle
use a float
haughty furnace
What do I use the float for?
opaque spindle
its a number but it has decimal
haughty furnace
I’m trying to make it have commas though and make it into a string
grave tundra
im not good at yapping how it exactly works so im gonna just pst a pic
haughty furnace
Alr
grave tundra
ehh to lazy to remake it
im just gonna show the old one which still works but could be more compact

The easiest (and best) way to do this dynamically is to convert the number to a string, and then create a loop from 0 to String Length / 3, and inserting a , at Index * 3, except for index 0
The easiest way to "Insert" a string into another string at a specific index is:
Split the string into 2 strings using 2 String Substring chips, where the first half is Index 0, Length [InsertIndex], and the second one is Index [InsertIndex], Length 512. Then, concat these strings back together with String Concat where the seperator is ,

but thats not a constant string
plucky forge
but thats not a constant string
Yeah, hence the loop, dynamically inserting commas into the string as fit

ew that’s bad
i know

Hmm... this is a little more complicated than i thought
my current method is working but only when the number of digits is a multiple of 3 (0, 3, 6, 9)
oh, found another problem too lol

same
We need like string step chip
plucky forge
fixed
Just had to add String Length % 3 to the index

Takes any input INTEGER, adds commas as required
This method would work with a string, but you need to remove the decimals first and then add them back after (since you dont give commas to decimals)
The easiest way to just get the number is by using Floor To Int
The easiest way to get just the decimals is by using Modulo and modulo'ing the number by 1, then converting to string and removing the first 2 characters (0.) by using String Substring with index 2 and length 512, then you just concat the result with the decimals, eg. 1050.0555 turns into 1,050.0555

still not constant
plucky forge
still not constant
wtf do you mean "Not constant"
numbers aren't constant, numbers change
This converts any number into a string with commas

dont u have to excecute the list for etc.?

dont u have to excecute the list for etc.?
and? every single chip in the game that uses this value needs an execution too, eg. Text Set Text, Button Set Text, Log String, Print To Text Screen, Add Tag, Objective Marker Set Label
The only thing that can read this value without an execution is the makerpen
Executions aren't bad
stop being scared of executions
I was too at one point and thats why my older circuits suck ass

Can’t you use a mod chip?
