The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Lingua::EN::Words2Nums DSLIP: cdpfp description: convert english text to number userid: JOEY (Joey Hess) chapterid: 11 (String_Lang_Text_Proc) communities: #perl on irc.openprojects.net similar: Lingua::ID::Words2Nums rationale: This module converts english text to a number, and my prototype can `currently handle cardinal and ordinal numbers from zero to one billion plus. I may later extend it with support for mixed numbers ("5 thousand and 1") decimals and fractions. Lingua::ID::Words2Nums is the equivilant module, already in CPAN for Indonesian, so I picked the name by analogy with that (and will base the interface on that module as well). FWIW, I hate the name, but I guess consistency is a good thing.If I had my druthers, I'd prefer to call it Lingua::EN::NumParser. enteredby: JOEY (Joey Hess) enteredon: Wed Dec 19 16:39:41 2001 GMT The resulting entry would be: Lingua::EN:: ::Words2Nums cdpfp convert english text to number JOEY Thanks for registering, The Pause Team PS: The following links are only valid for module list maintainers: Registration form with editing capabilities: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=89200000_f081f3007d30eef2&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_preview=1 Immediate (one click) registration: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=89200000_f081f3007d30eef2&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_insertit=1
