num2fawords
===========

`num2fawords` is a highly customizable library which provides functions to convert a number (int, float, Decimal, Fraction, or str) into Persian word form.

Installation
============

- Python 3.4+ is required
- ``pip install 'setuptools>=36.2.1'``
- ``pip install num2fawords``

Usage
=====

.. code-block:: python

>>> from num2fawords import words, ordinal_words
>>> words(1984)
'یک هزار و نهصد و هشتاد و چهار'
>>> ordinal_words(1232)
'یک هزار و دویست و سی و دوم'
>>> ordinal_words(123)
'یکصد و بیست و سوم'
>>> words(1.1e-9)
'یک و یک دهم در ده به توان منفی نه'

Obviously, `words` is used to convert to word form and `ordinal_words` is for ordinal word from.

`words` also accepts other common standard types:

.. code-block:: python

>>> words(19.75)
'نوزده و هفتاد و پنج صدم'
>>> from decimal import Decimal
>>> words(Decimal('1.1'))
'یک و یک دهم'
>>> from fractions import Fraction
>>> words(Fraction(-2, 5))
'منفی دو پنجم'

The default decimal separator is "و" but it can be changed to "ممیز" (or any other string) as follows:

.. code-block:: python

>>> words(19.75, decimal_separator=' ممیز ')
'نوزده ممیز هفتاد و پنج صدم'

Some people prefer, for example, "صد و هفتاد" over its other form "یکصد و هفتاد". This library uses the second form by default which is also used on official Iranian banknotes. But it can be changed:

.. code-block:: python

>>> from num2fawords import HUNDREDS
>>> words(170)
'یکصد و هفتاد'
>>> HUNDREDS[1] = 'صد'
>>> words(170)
'صد و هفتاد'

Some examples for other arguments of `words`:

.. code-block:: python

>>> words(7, positive='مثبت ')
'مثبت هفت'
>>> words(-2, negative='منهای ')
'منهای دو'
>>> words('۱/۲')
'یک دوم'
>>> words('1/2', fraction_separator=' تقسیم بر ', ordinal_denominator=False)
'یک تقسیم بر دو'
>>> words(1.1e-9)
'یک و یک دهم در ده به توان منفی نه'
>>> words(1.1e-9, scientific_separator=' ضربدر ده به قوهٔ ')
'یک و یک دهم ضربدر ده به قوهٔ منفی نه'

Of-course the above arguments can be used together.

If you prefer to change the default argument values once and for all, use the `change_defaults` function:

.. code-block:: python

>>> from num2fawords import change_defaults, words
>>> change_defaults(fraction_separator=' بخش بر ', ordinal_denominator=False)
>>> words('۱/۴')
'یک بخش بر چهار'

That's all. Enjoy!
