Be aware that the decimal symbol and the digit-grouping symbol (thousand separator) depend on the ITP Model language setting. The English model language setting uses a period (.) as decimal symbol and a comma as digit grouping symbol whereas Dutch and German use a comma as decimal symbol and the period as thousand separators.

This function is supported for number values limited to MAXINT(2^31 == 2,147,483,648). Above 2,147,483,648 the result of the function is undefined (although for some languages the result might be correct). You are recommended not to use this function for values over 2,147,483,648.
