Example 1: This example shows the use of the BigInt.prototype.toLocaleString() method in JavaScript.
javascript
<script> let geekvar = 45334n; console.log(geekvar.toLocaleString()); geekvar =78753456789123456789n; console.log(geekvar.toLocaleString('de-DE')); console.log(geekvar.toLocaleString('de-DE', { style: 'currency', currency: 'EUR' })); console.log(geekvar.toLocaleString('hi')); </script> |
Output:
"45, 334" "78.753.456.789.123.456.789" "78.753.456.789.123.456.789, 00 €" "7, 87, 53, 45, 67, 89, 12, 34, 56, 789"
Example 2: This example shows the use of the BigInt.prototype.toLocaleString() method in JavaScript.
javascript
<script> let geekvar =78753456789123456789n; console.log(geekvar.toLocaleString('ar-EG')); console.log(geekvar.toLocaleString('en-IN', { maximumSignificantDigits: 3 })); console.log(geekvar.toLocaleString('zh-Hans-CN-u-nu-hanidec')); console.log(geekvar.toLocaleString(['ban', 'id'])); </script> |
Output:
