Need a function that converts a double into a whole int, rounding the decimal and ret

[Zubi Pen]

Hey peeps,

I am new to java and I wanted to know how to make a little function that has a double value and returns a int value in form of a string.
For example,

public String getValueInString() {
 
double value = 12345.56
//I need help to convert the double value into a whole number, rounding the decimal
//and then placing a comma after the three digits
 
return value;
 
}

So after running the function it returns the value: 12,346

Hence this does two things, places a comma afer the three digits and rounds the document in a whole number so 12345.56 becomes 12346

Can anyone help me how to do this.

Thanks,
Zub

Try java.text.DecimalFormat class for formating.
* Use format method

Use java.lang.Math for rounding off numbers.

* Math.round(<double>

Hope this helps.

Thanks
