I am working with OpenRPT report writer and am trying to add the thousands comma separator for a field and the example they provide is %0.2f which I believe to be Python syntax. This is formatting the value as a float with 2 digit precision; however, I do not have thousand comma separation. How can I adjust the format mask to allow for thousand comma separation? I have attached an image of the dialog.
Sample input: 16119.20
Desired output: 16,119.20
Using the modern f-strings is, in my opinion, the most Pythonic solution to add commas as thousand-separators for all Python versions above 3.6: f'{1000000:,}' . The inner part within the curly brackets :, says to format the number and use commas as thousand separators.
In Python, to format a number with commas we will use “{:,}” along with the format() function and it will add a comma to every thousand places starting from left. After writing the above code (python format number with commas), Ones you will print “numbers” then the output will appear as a “ 5,000,000”.
How to Format a Number as Percentage. Python f-strings have a very convenient way of formatting percentage. The rules are similar to float formatting, except that you append a % instead of f . It multiplies the number by 100 displaying it in a fixed format, followed by a percent sign.
You mean something like this?
>>> "{:,.2f}".format(12345678.23456)
'12,345,678.23'
