VERSION

This document describes version 0.17 of Lingua::ID::Words2Nums (from Perl distribution Lingua-ID-Words2Nums), released on 2015-09-03.

SYNOPSIS

 use Lingua::ID::Words2Nums qw(words2nums words2nums_simple);

DESCRIPTION

This module provides two functions, words2nums and words2nums_simple. They are the counterpart of Lingua::ID::Nums2Words's nums2words and nums2words_simple.

FUNCTIONS

words2nums($str) -> any

Convert Indonesian verbage to number.

Parse Indonesian verbage and return number, or undef if failed (unknown verbage or 'syntax error'). In English, this is equivalent to converting "one hundred and twenty three" to 123. Currently can handle real numbers in normal and scientific form in the order of hundreds of trillions.

Will produce unexpected result if you feed it stupid verbage.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

• str* => str

  The verbage to convert.

Return value: (any)

words2nums_simple($str) -> any

Like words2nums, but can only parse sequence of digits.

In English, this is equivalent to converting "one two three" to 123.

Will produce unexpected result if you feed it stupid verbage.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

• str* => str

  The verbage to convert.

Return value: (any)

EXPORTS

None are exported by default, but they are exportable.

$Pat (regex)

A regex for quickly matching/extracting number verbage from text; it looks for a string of words. It's not perfect (improper verbage might be allowed, e.g. "dua ribu tiga juta"), but it's convenient.

Currently only multipliers up to trillions ("triliun") are recognized. Bigger multipliers are usually only found in scientific text.
