[Help]Format money

[sckatchof]

hi guys how can make the money show like this on scoreboard : $ x.xxx.xxx

server side :

addEventHandler("onClientRender",getRootElement(), 
    function() 
        if not starttick then 
            starttick = getTickCount() 
        end 
        currenttick = getTickCount() 
        if currenttick - starttick >= 1000 then 
            setElementData(player, "Money" , "$"..getPlayerMoney( player ) ) 
            starttick =  getTickCount() 
        end 
    end 
)

function format(n) 
    local left,num,right = string.match(n,'^([^%d]*%d)(%d*)(.-)$') 
    return left..(num:reverse():gsub('(%d%d%d)','%1,'):reverse())..right 
end 

Example:

format( getPlayerMoney( player ) ) 

P.S. This function is not mine.
