To get a decimal with 2 numbers after the comma  you could just use   function nformat a       var b   parseInt parseFloat a  100  100     return b toFixed 2

I wrote a simple function  not yet another jQuery plugin needed    that converts a number to a decimal separated string or an empty string if the number wasn t a number to begin with   function format x        return isNaN x     x toString   replace   B     d 3       d   g            format 578999   results in 578 999  format 10   results in 10  if you want to have a decimal point instead of a comma simply replace the comma in the code with a decimal point    One of the comments correctly stated this only works for integers  with a few small adaptions you can make it work for floating points as well   function format x        if isNaN x  return          n  x toString   split           return n 0  replace   B     d 3       d   g        n length gt 1     n 1

You can do it in the following way  So you will not only format the number but you can also pass as a parameter how many decimal digits to display  you set a custom decimal and mile separator   function format number  decimals   2  decimalSeparator        thousandsSeparator              const roundedNumber   number toFixed decimals       let integerPart       fractionalPart           if  decimals    0            integerPart   roundedNumber          decimalSeparator             else           let numberParts   roundedNumber split               integerPart   numberParts 0           fractionalPart   numberParts 1             integerPart   integerPart replace    d      d 3       d   g    1  thousandsSeparator         return    integerPart   decimalSeparator   fractionalPart        Use    let min   1556454 0001  let max   15556982 9999  console time  number format    for  let i   0  i  lt  15000  i          let randomNumber   Math random      max - min    min       let formated   format randomNumber  4                formated number      console debug  number     randomNumber   formated     formated     console timeEnd  number format

Yes  there is definitely a way to format numbers properly in javascript  for example   var val 2489 8237  val toFixed 3    returns 2489 824  round up  val toFixed 2    returns 2489 82 val toFixed 7    returns 2489 8237000  padding    With the use of variablename toFixed    And there is another function toPrecision     For more detail you also can visit   http   raovishal blogspot com 2012 01 number-format-in-javascript html

Firstly  converting an integer into string in JS is really simple      Start off with a number var number   42     Convert into a string by appending an empty  or whatever you like as a string  to it var string   42        No extra conversion is needed  even though you could actually do var alsoString   number toString      If you have a number as a string and want it to be turned to an integer  you have to use the parseInt string  for integers and parseFloat string  for floats  Both of these functions then return the desired integer float  Example      Start off with a float as a string var stringFloat    3 14      And an int as a string var stringInt    42       typeof stringInt  would give you  string      Get the real float from the string var realFloat   parseFloat someFloat      Same for the int var realInt   parseInt stringInt       but typeof realInt  will now give you  number    What exactly are you trying to append etc  remains unclear to me from your question
