Sorry ts-soft, I just skimmed the posts after the first couple.

Wikipedia wrote:(for example: 20 000 and 1 000 000 for "twenty thousand" and "one million")

Oh, the irony -- Wikipedia has to explain what 20 000 means with words.

Dude wrote: I agree, which is why it should use the default OS thousands separator, as I just mentioned. Makes perfect sense and stops any arguing.

But having TWO new functions returning the TWO separators to be used HERE with this function to specify the defaults from the OS, and usable anywhere else too would be a lot better.

You could also use them to write a better function than this trivial one by yourself.

Well, that's required when formally introducing a new form of something even if its meaning it's obvious but LOL anyway
