    • Method Detail

      • setTensUnitsSeparatorCardinal

        public void setTensUnitsSeparatorCardinal​(java.lang.String separator)
        Set the separator to be used between tens and units for cardinal numbers. This allows customization of the output, for example "thirty six", "thirty-six", or "thirtysix". Default is a single space.

        Currently the only way of calling this is from a subclass, which can be nominated by setting a LocalizerFactory on the Configuration

        Parameters:
        separator - the separator to be used between tens and units when cardinal numbers are written as words.
      • setTensUnitsSeparatorOrdinal

        public void setTensUnitsSeparatorOrdinal​(java.lang.String separator)
        Set the separator to be used between tens and units for ordinal numbers. This allows customization of the output, for example "thirty sixth", "thirty-sixth", or "thirtysixth". Default is a hyphen.

        Currently the only way of calling this is from a subclass, which can be nominated by setting a LocalizerFactory on the Configuration

        Parameters:
        separator - the separator to be used between tens and units when ordinal numbers are written as words.
      • setLanguage

        public void setLanguage​(java.lang.String language)
        Set the language used by this numberer. Useful because it can potentially handle variants of English (and subclasses can handle other languages)
        Overrides:
        setLanguage in class AbstractNumberer
        Parameters:
        language - the requested language. Note that "en-x-hyphen" is recognized as a request to hyphenate numbers in the range 21-99.
      • ordinalSuffix

        protected java.lang.String ordinalSuffix​(java.lang.String ordinalParam,
                                                 long number)
        Construct the ordinal suffix for a number, for example "st", "nd", "rd"
        Overrides:
        ordinalSuffix in class AbstractNumberer
        Parameters:
        ordinalParam - the value of the ordinal attribute (used in non-English language implementations)
        number - the number being formatted
        Returns:
        the ordinal suffix to be appended to the formatted number
      • toWords

        public java.lang.String toWords​(java.lang.String cardinal,
                                        long number)
        Show the number as words in title case. (We choose title case because the result can then be converted algorithmically to lower case or upper case).
        Specified by:
        toWords in class AbstractNumberer
        Parameters:
        cardinal -
        number - the number to be formatted
        Returns:
        the number formatted as English words
