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 :

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!
