In PostgreSQL, you can use the to_char
function to format a numeric value as a string. For example:
1
|
SELECT to_char(12345.678, '9999.99') as formatted_number; |
This will return the string '12345.68'
. The format string '9999.99' specifies that the number should be formatted with at least 4 digits before the decimal point and 2 digits after the decimal point.
You can use various formatting options to control the appearance of the formatted number. For example:
Here are some examples of how you can use these formatting options:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 |
SELECT to_char(12345.678, 'FM$9,999.99') as formatted_number; -- Returns '$12,345.68' SELECT to_char(12345.678, '$9,999.00') as formatted_number; -- Returns '$12,345.68' SELECT to_char(12345.678, '$9,999.00') as formatted_number; -- Returns '$12,345.68' SELECT to_char(12345.678, '$9,999.00') as formatted_number; -- Returns '$12,345.68' SELECT to_char(12345.678, '$9,999.90') as formatted_number; -- Returns '$12,345.68' SELECT to_char(12345.678, '$9,999') as formatted_number; -- Returns '$12,346' SELECT to_char(12345.678, 'FM$9,999') as formatted_number; -- Returns '$12,346' SELECT to_char(12345.678, 'FM$9,999.90') as formatted_number; -- Returns '$12,345.68' |
