Best way to convert string[which is basically a comma seprated number] to an integer in PHP

Question

I have a value like 12,25,246 I want to get 1225246 (must be an integer)

How can I do that?

I have searched a lot but there are direct answer like converting string to integer but not like this actually these both are like integer

I have tried php formate_number but it did not worked.

@Rajon The question is slightly different than the one you linked. Here the value has multiple commas and is not in a common numerical format. — segFault, Mar 24 '20 at 11:49

You could use a combination of intval() and str_replace() to do this.

Example:

$value = '12,25,246';
var_dump(intval(str_replace(',','',$value)));
// Yields: "int(1225246)"
