x = 99456
Example : cout << X

thanks a lot. i thought there is a manipulator the can do the job directly.
is this the easiest way "fixed a couple of bugs (brute force version). "
it seems too long for adding a comma for the thousand / million ranges
That is only one way to do it. A more generic way would be to first convert the int to string, then copy the digits in reverse order (from right to left) into another string adding the commas. Finally you will have to reverse the result string because it will be backwards. std::reverse() will do that.

Unless you copy into the string starting at the end of the destination string.
great , thanks all for the help .
