how to put comma in every 3 digit for a number

Question

I want to put comma in every 3 digit for a number, for example.

$number = 1234567;
// should print 1,234,567

how can I do this?

update: please see this code

<?php
/**
 * Get Popularity Text of a Domain via Alexa XML Data
 *
 * @return string|FALSE text or FALSE on error
 */
function alexa_get_rank($domain)
{
    $alexa = "http://data.alexa.com/data?cli=10&dat=s&url=%s";
    $request_url =  sprintf($alexa, urlencode($domain));


    $xml = simplexml_load_file($request_url);
    if (!$xml) {
        return FALSE;
    }

    $nodeAttributes = $xml->SD[1]->POPULARITY->attributes();
    $text = (int) $nodeAttributes['TEXT'];

    $num = number_format($text);

    return $num;
}

in this return only 3 digit.

Try this one:

$number = 1234567;
echo number_format($number);

Use this as ref.

$number = 1234.56;

//english notation (default)
$english_format_number = number_format($number);// 1,235


// French notation
$nombre_format_francais = number_format($number, 2, ',', ' ');// 1 234,56


//----------------------------------------------


$number = 1234.5678;

// english notation without thousands separator
$english_format_number = number_format($number, 2, '.', '');// 1234.57
