How to input currency format on a text field (from right to left) using Swift?

Question

I have a number let’s say 0.00.

• When the user taps 1. We should have 0.01
• When the user taps 2. We should display 0.

Answer 1

Here is a code for swift 2

@IBOutlet weak var txtAmount: UITextField!

//MARK: - UITextField Delegate -
    func textField(textField: UITextField, shouldChangeCharactersInRange range: NSRange, replacementString string: String) -> Bool{

        if string.characters.count == 0 {
            return true
        }

        let userEnteredString = textField.text ?? ""
        var newString = (userEnteredString as NSString).stringByReplacingCharactersInRange(range, withString: string) as NSString
        newString = newString.stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString(".", withString: "")

        let centAmount : NSInteger = newString.integerValue
        let amount = (Double(centAmount) / 100.0)

        if newString.length < 16 {
            let str = String(format: "%0.2f", arguments: [amount])
            txtAmount.text = str
        }

        return false //return false for exact out put
    }

Note : Connect delegate for textField from storyboard or programatically
