One of the tasks I usually come across while working on some of the more commercial web applications is to display a number in INR i.e Indian National Rupee ( ₹ ) format which makes it really easy to perceive the number as Indian Rupees. Let me show you how to format a number to Indian Rupee format in PHP
function moneyFormatIndia($number) {
$decimal = (string)($number - floor($number));
$money = floor($number);
$length = strlen($money);
$delimiter = '';
$money = strrev($money);
for($i=0;$i<$length;$i++){
if(( $i==3 || ($i>3 && ($i-1)%2==0) )&& $i!=$length){
$delimiter .=',';
}
$delimiter .=$money[$i];
}
$result = strrev($delimiter);
$decimal = preg_replace("/0\./i", ".", $decimal);
$decimal = substr($decimal, 0, 3);
if( $decimal != '0'){
$result = $result.$decimal;
}
return $result; // writes the final format where $currency is the currency symbol.
}
