What should I do? Select int as currency or convert int to currency format in MySql?
To convert int to current format, use CONCAT() with FORMAT() function from MySQL.
The syntax is as follows −
SELECT CONCAT(‘CurrencySymbol’,FORMAT(yourColumnName,valueAfterDecimal)) as AnyVariableName from yourTableName;
To understand the above syntax, let us create a table. The query to create a table −
mysql> create table AddingCurrencySymbolDemo −> ( −> Amount int −> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (1.50 sec)
Insert records in the table using insert command. The query is as follows −
mysql> insert into AddingCurrencySymbolDemo values(250); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.22 sec) mysql> insert into AddingCurrencySymbolDemo values(500); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.22 sec) mysql> insert into AddingCurrencySymbolDemo values(1000); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.16 sec) mysql> insert into AddingCurrencySymbolDemo values(750); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement. The query is as follows −
mysql> select *from AddingCurrencySymbolDemo;
The following is the output −
+--------+ | Amount | +--------+ | 250 | | 500 | | 1000 | | 750 | +--------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Here is the query to convert int to currency format. The query is as follows −
mysql> select concat('$',format(Amount,0)) as AddedCurrency from AddingCurrencySymbolDemo;
The following is the output displaying current format −
+---------------+ | AddedCurrency | +---------------+ | $250 | | $500 | | $1,000 | | $750 | +---------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec).
