title: Convert python string into integer without commas in them
body: <p>I am using beautifulsoup4 to extract prices tag from a website. The code i m using is this</p>
  
  <pre><code> #price
          try:
              price = soup.find('span',{'id':'actualprice'})
              price_result= str(price.get_text())
              print "Price: ",price_result
          except StandardError as e:
              price_result="Error was {0}".format(e)
              print price_result
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The output i m getting is a string with a format with commas in it. e.g.
  <code>82,000,00</code></p>
  
  <p><strong>What i want:</strong></p>
  
  <p>Change the format from string price to integer price without commas in it so that i can use them as values intead of strings in excel</p>
