Remove commas from string using javascript

Question

I want to remove commas from a string and compute them using javascript.

For example: I have these two values ​​-

• 100,000.00
• 500,000.00

Now I want to remove the comma from this line and I want the total amount to be like that.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

To remove commas, you will need to use replace in the string. To convert to float so you can do the math, you need parseFloat :

 var total = parseFloat('100,000.00'.replace(/,/g, '')) + parseFloat('500,000.00'.replace(/,/g, ''));
