  need assistance modifying a expression

  Posted by Dylan Hansen on February 1, 2013 at 10:03 pm

  I found this beautiful expression on here and i need a little help editing it.

  My question has to do with the part that adds the Comma to the last 3 digets of my number. As you can see i’m working with a very big number, how do i add additional commas to the rest of it?

  Thanks!

  Dylan

  startValue = 16549376432298;
endValue = 17549376432298;
dur = 30; //seconds

  s = "" + Math.round(linear(time,0,dur,startValue,endValue));
  s.substr(0,s.length-3) + "," + s.substr(-3,3)

  Looks like with some tinkering i figured it out. Trial and error for the win!

  Heres what i came up with. Thoughts?

  startValue = 16549376432298;
endValue = 16549396432298;
dur = 30; //seconds

  s = "$" + Math.round(linear(time,0,dur,startValue,endValue));
s.substr(0,s.length-12) + "," + s.substr(-3,3)+ "," + s.substr(-3,3)+ "," + s.substr(-3,3)+ "," + s.substr(-3,3)
