Insert comma in number?

[eli m]

I have a python program that accepts input and calculates the factorial of that number, and i want to know if i can make it so commas get inserted in the number.
For example: instead of 1000 it would say 1,000

pip install humanize


import humanize
my_integer = 12345678
commafied_integer = humanize.intcomma(my_integer)
print commafied_integer


output:
12,345,678

Use the "," (i.e. comma) format() specifier directive. See
http://docs.python.org/2/library/string.html#format-specification-mini-language

Cheers,

Last not least there's the option to employ locale-aware formatting:
'12,345'

In German usage of "." and "," is reversed, so:
'12.345'

Does this locale-aware example only work on UNIX?

If you have Windows in mind: I don't know what it takes to get multiple
locales on a Windows system, but for the default locale that you can specify
with

locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "")

it should work.
