Hello. I want to convert 4 or more digit numbers to strings that don't have any punctuation. 

 

For example, when I format the number 4444 to a string and choose "Number" as the format. The resulting string is "4,444.0". I want the result to be "4444".

 

How can I achieve that? Thank you.

 

 

Here is a two-step solution hopefully:



1. Convert the numeric value into an integer



2. Create a text string with the integer in it.



 



Here is the little test:





One start variable: a numeric input with the value 4321.56





followed by:





I added the '<' and the '>' just for clarity in the output here.





Gives the result :




Thank you, @WouterT 



The 2 step process worked. 



 



It didn't occur to me to use the operation "Create a text string". I was originally using the action "Format number to string" and it added the comma thousands separator as well as the ".0" at the end.



 



I also tried skipping the "Convert a value" step, which converts the number to an integer. And that produced a string without the thousands separator, but the ".0" was still displayed.



 



So, the 2 step process is the winner. Thank you!
