Q:

Is there a way to change a input from a user in python?

I'm very new to python but i will try to explain. I have a input like this 1234567890 and i want it to be more readable when it is a larger number and i want it to be formatted like this 1,234,567,890.
from datetime import datetime
    def price_calc():

    the_item = 38
    amount_of_the_item = input("Amount of items: ") #This output is what i want to change.

    price = ((int(amount_of_the_item)) * (int(the_item)))

    print("{:,}".format(price),"USD")

    now = datetime.now()
    t = now.strftime("%H:%M:%S")
    print("Time", t)

while True:
    price_calc()

Right now I get this from the console: 
Amount of items: 1234567890
46,913,579,820 USD
Time 01:22:29

But I want to get this instead:
Amount of items: 1,234,567,890
46,913,579,820 USD
Time 01:22:29

and the first line of the console output is what I want to change.

A:

I solved the problem in a way so the input of the user gets cleard from the terminal before it shows up on the screen and I still have the value
OLD CODE
from datetime import datetime

def price_calc():

    the_item = 38
    amount_of_the_item = input("Amount of items: ") #This output is what i want to change.

    price = ((int(amount_of_the_item)) * (int(the_item)))

    print("{:,}".format(price),"USD")

    now = datetime.now()
    t = now.strftime("%H:%M:%S")
    print("Time", t)

while True:
    price_calc()

NEW CODE
import os #NEW
from datetime import datetime

def price_calc():
    os.system("cls") #NEW
    the_item = 38
    amount_of_the_item = input("Amount of items: ")
    print('\033[1A[\033[2K\033[1G', end='') #NEW
    print('Amount of items: {:,}'.format(int(amount_of_the_item))) #NEW

    price = ((int(amount_of_the_item)) * (int(the_item)))

    print("{:,}".format(price),"USD")

    now = datetime.now()
    t = now.strftime("%H:%M:%S")
    print("Time", t)

    input("Press Enter To Continue") #NEW. This is a buffer so the code dont clear it self before i can read it.

while True:
    price_calc()

The console output i get now is this:
Amount of items: 1,234,567,890
46,913,579,820 USD
Time 15:15:59
Press Enter To Continue
Thank you for all the help i got.
