# Words to Numbers

The challenge is simple: Convert numbers into their word form, with no tricks like libraries, packages, caching, etc.

The "Words to Numbers" project is a challenging Python script that converts numbers (greater than 0) into their word form only with a single line of code. Originally aimed to produce this program in under 90 lines in Python, I refined and rewrote it over and over to achieve its final state.

## Installation

To set up the project environment and run the script, you must have Poetry installed. If you do not have Poetry, you can install it by following the instructions [here](https://python-poetry.org/docs/).

After installing Poetry, clone this repository to your local machine:

```bash

git clone https://your-repository-url/words_to_numbers.git

cd words_to_numbers

poetry install    # No dependencies to install

```

## Usage

To run the script, use the following command:

```bash

poetry run python -m words_to_numbers

```

## Features

- **Single-Line Conversion**: The core feature of this script is its ability to convert numbers into words in a single line of Python code.

- **Expanding**: Expanding the range of the program's output is simple, just add more elements to the 3 lists each currently created as

```py

[ "", "hundred ", "thousand ", "million ", "billion ", "trillion ", "quadrillion ", "quintillion ", "hextillion ", "septillion "]

```

and increment the number 9 found in 3 different places within the program, all in places with boilerplate:

```py

if (

    0

    if (len(x) - i) == 1

    else (

        (0 if x[i] == "0" else 1)

        if (len(x) - i) % 3 == 0

        else (

            (((len(x) - i) - 4) // 3) + 2

            if ((len(x) - i) - 4) % 3 == 0

            and (

                x[i] != "0"

                or x[i if (i - 1) < 0 else i - 1] != "0"

                or x[i if (i - 2) < 0 else i - 2] != "0"

            )

            else 0

        )

    )

) > 9:       # Update the 9 in 3 locations all with this context (expanded version)

```
