How do I get 100000 to be like 100,000

Question

const renderCommas = (number) => {
    return number >= 1000 ? `${Number.parseFloat((number).toFixed(3))}` : number;
};

`toFixed` should be only used for decimals, not for number localization. — Roko C. Buljan, Aug 16 '18 at 17:24

@Rover33 Using some terms from my previous comment I was able to google `toLocaleString()` — Roko C. Buljan, Aug 16 '18 at 17:27

I agree with @DaveNewton. Downvote tells the answer is wrong. Like I felt. :) — Arup Rakshit, Aug 16 '18 at 17:30

you can use toLocaleString()

a = 100000
console.log(a.toLocaleString());

You can use the following code to format a number with a comma:

var num       = 100000;
var formatted = num.toLocaleString(undefined);

console.log(formatted);

I didn't downvote, but it's unclear to me why you're advocating for `undefined` as the parameter to `toLocaleString`, and I think without any explanation, it's an incomplete answer. – Dave Newton Aug 16 '18 at 20:03
