How do I Make High Numbers Into Words

I am trying to make a number like 1000,000 display as 1 million

or a better example would be 152,000 as 1.52 Million and keep counting as it goes through the billions and trillions and so on

Like Adventure Capitalist

thanks for any help

Look into subevents in the manual to make a nested hierarchy of how you want to decide what gets the weird treatment. You'll need to compare if score > 1,000,000 change scoreText (or whatever you name your text/spritefont) to int(score/1000000) & "." & int((score-1000000)*.000001) & "million"

Something along those lines, but check the math because I didn't bother counting zeroes on my phone. Just have a series of checks about how big the score is or isn't and format your text with some math.

Here, I made a quick .capx (in C2 208) to give you a rough example. You can toy with it to make it more to your liking, but I was just demonstrating how it could be done.

Thanks for the capx , I was able to alter it to display million trillion billion quadrillion quintillion but after that cant seem to go higher. I need to go up to numbers like decilion and way above any ideas. ??

Make it generic by storing your labels in an Array, write a loop to find the label you want based on an expression like "score < 10 ^ (loopindex * 3)" - since every label goes up every three powers of 10 (3 zeroes). Then you can add as many labels as you want into the Array.

Thanks for the reply tgfcoder I pick things up fairly quick , but what you said has shot right over my head , is there any chance of a small example. (if i see it il get it)
