See this similar question:

It looks like if your printf supports POSIX 2008, you can set a locale and use the ' flag.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <locale.h>

int main(void)
{
    setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, "");
    printf("%'d\n", 1123456789);
    return 0;
}

Thankyou, I tried it, but the output is " `d ", I copied all of your code and run it but it still didn't work – Nico A.L Nov 11 '21 at 16:52
If you follow the link I posted, the second answer gives a way to implement your own "printfcomma" function which you could adapt to your locale. It could be that your printf doesn't support POSIX 2008, and so doesn't recognise the ```'``` flag – DTynewydd Nov 11 '21 at 16:58
Thankyou very much – Nico A.L Nov 12 '21 at 06:15
