Explanation

The Splunk tostring() eval function accepts an optional second argument to control string formatting. Valid format options are: 'hex' (converts a number to hexadecimal, e.g., 100 → '0x64'), 'commas' (formats a number with comma separators, e.g., 1000000 → '1,000,000'), and 'duration' (converts a number of seconds into a human-readable HH:MM:SS string).
