# ZahlWort2num (v.1.0.0)

🇩🇪 🇩🇪 🇩🇪
A small but useful package (due to shortage of/low quality support for `lang_de`) for handy conversion of German numerals (incl. ordinal numbers) written as strings to numbers.

To put it differently: _It allows reverse text normalization for numbers_.

This package might be a good complementary lib to https://github.com/savoirfairelinux/num2words

# Installation

```bash
pip install zahlwort2num
```

# Usage

### Basic Usage

```python
import zahlwort2num as w2n
```

### Examples

```python
# Basic cardinal numbers
w2n.convert('Zweihundertfünfundzwanzig')  # => 225

# Ordinal numbers (return as string with dot)
w2n.convert('neunte')  # => '9.'

# Negative numbers
w2n.convert('minus siebenhundert Millionen achtundsiebzig')  # => -700000078

# Complex large numbers
w2n.convert('sechshundertdreiundfünfzigtausendfünfhunderteinundzwanzig')  # => 653521

# Fractions
w2n.convert('ein und zwei')  # => 0.5
w2n.convert('drei viertel')  # => 0.75
w2n.convert('ein halb')      # => 0.5

# Decimals
w2n.convert('zwei komma fünf')  # => 2.5
w2n.convert('zehn komma eins')  # => 10.1

# Regional variants
w2n.convert('zwoa')      # => 2  (Austrian)
w2n.convert('dreissig')  # => 30 (Swiss)
```

### Command Line Usage

Use quotes around parameters containing spaces:

```bash
zahlwort2num-convert 'eine Million siebenhunderteinundzwanzig'
```

# Development

### Setup

Install development dependencies:

```bash
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
```

### Testing

Run the test suite:

```bash
python3 -m unittest
```

### Linting

Run the linter:

```bash
python3 -m venv venv
source ./venv/bin/activate
python3 -m pip install flake8
flake8 ./zahlwort2num/*.py --count --exit-zero --max-complexity=10 --max-line-length=127 --statistics
```
