How can the number_format function be integrated into existing PHP scripts, such as those used in a shop for displaying prices?

To integrate the number_format function into existing PHP scripts used in a shop for displaying prices, you can simply apply the number_format function to the price variable before displaying it on the website. This function allows you to format the price with commas and decimal points, making it more readable for users.

<?php
// Existing price variable
$price = 1000;

// Apply number_format function to format the price
$formatted_price = number_format($price, 2);

// Display the formatted price
echo "Price: $" . $formatted_price;
?>
