Format Number like Stack Overflow (rounded to thousands with K suffix)
How to format numbers like SO with C#? 10, 5k, ... Like this: ( EDIT : Tested) static string FormatNumber(int num) { if (num >= 100000) return FormatNumber(num / 1000) + "K"; if (num >= 10000) { return (num / 1000D).ToString("0.#") + "K"; } return num.ToString("#,0"); } Examples: 1 => 1 23 => 23 136 => 136 6968 => 6,968 23067 => 23.1K 133031 => 133K Note that this will give strange values for numbers >= 10 8 . For example, 12345678 becomes 12.3KK . The code below is tested up to int.MaxValue This is not the most beautiful code but is most efficient. But you can use it as: 123.KiloFormat();
