``num2words`` is a library that converts numbers like ``42`` to words like ``forty-two``.
|
|
It supports multiple languages (see the list below for full list
|
|
of languages) and can even generate ordinal numbers like ``forty-second``
|
|
(although this last feature is a bit buggy for some languages at the moment).
|
|
|
|
The project is hosted on GitHub_. Contributions are welcome.

Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to install ``num2words`` is to use pip::
|
|
|
|
pip install num2words
|
|
|
|
Otherwise, you can download the source package and then execute::
|
|
|
|
python setup.py install
|
|
|
|
The test suite in this library is new, so it's rather thin, but it can be run with::
|
|
|
|
python setup.py test
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
There's only one function to use::
|
|
|
|
>>> from num2words import num2words
|
|
>>> num2words(42)
|
|
forty-two
|
|
>>> num2words(42, to='ordinal')
|
|
forty-second
|
|
>>> num2words(42, lang='fr')
|
|
quarante-deux
|
|
|
|
Besides the numerical argument, there's two optional arguments.
|
|
|
|
**to:** The converter to use. Supported values are:
|
|
|
|
* ``cardinal`` (default)
|
|
* ``ordinal``
|
|
* ``ordinal_num``
|
|
* ``year``
|
|
* ``currency``
|
|
|
|
**lang:** The language in which to convert the number. Supported values are:
|
|
|
|
* ``en`` (English, default)
|
|
* ``ar`` (Arabic)
|
|
* ``cz`` (Czech)
|
|
* ``de`` (German)
|
|
* ``dk`` (Danish)
|
|
* ``en_GB`` (English - Great Britain)
|
|
* ``en_IN`` (English - India)
|
|
* ``es`` (Spanish)
|
|
* ``es_CO`` (Spanish - Colombia)
|
|
* ``es_VE`` (Spanish - Venezuela)
|
|
* ``eu`` (EURO)
|
|
* ``fr`` (French)
|
|
* ``fr_CH`` (French - Switzerland)
|
|
* ``fr_BE`` (French - Belgium)
|
|
* ``fr_DZ`` (French - Algeria)
|
|
* ``he`` (Hebrew)
|
|
* ``id`` (Indonesian)
|
|
* ``it`` (Italian)
|
|
* ``lt`` (Lithuanian)
|
|
* ``lv`` (Latvian)
|
|
* ``no`` (Norwegian)
|
|
* ``pl`` (Polish)
|
|
* ``pt_BR`` (Portuguese - Brazilian)
|
|
* ``sl`` (Slovene)
|
|
* ``ru`` (Russian)
|
|
* ``tr`` (Turkish)
|
|
* ``th`` (Thai)
|
|
* ``vn`` (Vietnamese)
|
|
* ``nl`` (Dutch)
|
|
* ``uk`` (Ukrainian)
|
|
|
|
You can supply values like ``fr_FR``; if the country doesn't exist but the
|
|
language does, the code will fall back to the base language (i.e. ``fr``). If
|
|
you supply an unsupported language, ``NotImplementedError`` is raised.
|
|
Therefore, if you want to call ``num2words`` with a fallback, you can do::
|
|
|
|
try:
|
|
return num2words(42, lang=mylang)
|
|
except NotImplementedError:
|
|
return num2words(42, lang='en')
|
|
|
|
History
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
``num2words`` is based on an old library, ``pynum2word``, created by Taro Ogawa
|
|
in 2003. Unfortunately, the library stopped being maintained and the author
|
|
can't be reached. There was another developer, Marius Grigaitis, who in 2011
|
|
added Lithuanian support, but didn't take over maintenance of the project.
|
|
|
|
I am thus basing myself on Marius Grigaitis' improvements and re-publishing
|
|
``pynum2word`` as ``num2words``.
