How do I convert an integer to the corresponding words in objective-c?
(7 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
I am not sure how to explain this but I need something like this and I'm not quite sure how to do it. I have a textfield where the user enters a number. For example "200". I got a label that must show "Two Hundred"(The number entered in Words )
Any ideas on how to do this?
Thanks in advance sorry for my bad english

try this:
//textField.text is 200
NSInteger someInt = [textField.text integerValue];
NSString *numberWord;
NSNumber *numberValue = [NSNumber numberWithInt:someInt];
NSNumberFormatter *numberFormatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init];
[numberFormatter setNumberStyle:NSNumberFormatterSpellOutStyle];
numberWord = [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:numberValue];
NSLog(#"numberWord= %#", numberWord); // Answer: two hundred
yourLabel.text = numberWord;

You can use a NSNumberFormatter It can convert an NSNumber into its word representation.
NSNumber* number = #100;
NSString* textNumber;
NSNumberFormatter *numberFormatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init];
[numberFormatter setNumberStyle:NSNumberFormatterSpellOutStyle];
textNumber = [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:number];

Here's something totally different. A bit more complex and weird, but you can fiddle around with it if you seek more manual control over the output. This is set up to serve a value up to 100,000 (to demonstrate a conditional set up).
Have fun:
int theInteger = 1,123;
int convert1000 = 0;
int convert100 = 0;
int convert10 = 0;
int convert1 = 0;
NSString * wordThousand = #"Thousand";
NSString * wordHundred = #"Hundred";
NSArray *wordsArraySingleDigit = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:#"Zero",#"One",#"Two",#"Three",#"Four",#"Five",#"Six",#"Seven",#"Eight",#"Nine",nil];
NSArray *wordsArrayDoubleDigit = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:#"Ten",#"Eleven",#"Twelve",...,#"Ninety Eight", #"Ninety Nine",nil];
convert1000 = (theInteger - (theInteger % 1000))/1000;
convert100 = ((theInteger - (convert1000 * 1000)) - ((theInteger - (convert1000 * 1000)) % 100))/100;
convert10 = ((theInteger - (convert1000 *1000)-(convert100 *100)) - ((theInteger -(convert1000 *1000) - (convert100 *100)) % 10))/10;
convert1 = (theInteger - (convert1000 *1000)-(convert100 *100) - (convert10 *10));
if (theInteger > = 10000 && < 100000){
NSString * convertedThousand = [wordsArrayDoubleDigit objectAtIndex : convert1000];
convertedThousand = [NSString stringWithFormat: #“%# %#“,convertedThousand,wordThousand];
NSLog (convertedThousand);
}
if (theInteger >= 1000 && <= 10000){
NSString * convertedThousand = [wordsArraySingleDigit objectAtIndex : convert1000];
convertedThousand = [NSString stringWithFormat: #“%# %#“,convertedThousand,wordThousand];
NSLog (convertedThousand);
}
NSString * convertedHundred = [wordsArraySingleDigit objectAtIndex : convert100];
convertedHundred = [NSString stringWithFormat: #“%# %#“, convertedHundred,wordHundred];
NSLog (convertedHundred);
NSString * convertedTen = [wordsArraySingleDigit objectAtIndex : convert10];
convertedTen = [NSString stringWithFormat: #“%#“, convertedTen];
NSLog (convertedTen);
NSString *convertedOne = [wordsArraySingleDigit objectAtIndex : convert1];
NSLog (convertedOne);
Hope this helps or gives you a starting point for an alternative approach.

I think you should account for every possibility and make a set of IF statements, for example, if the first digit of the number is 3, write "three", if the number has 4 digits, display "thousands"... of course you can organize your code to make the process easy.

How to convert this value into absolute value?

I am getting this from webservice
"rateavg": "2.6111"
now i am getting this in a string.
How to do this that if it is coming 2.6 it will show 3 and if it will come 2.4 or 2.5 it will show 2 ?
How to get this i am not getting. please help me
Try This
float f=2.6;
NSLog(#"%.f",f);
Hope this helps.
I come up with this, a replica of your query:
NSString* str = #"2.611";
double duble = [str floatValue];
NSInteger final = 0;
if (duble > 2.5) {
final = ceil(duble);
}else{
final = floor(duble);
}
NSLog(#"%ld",(long)final);
So it a case of using either ceil or floor methods.
Edit: Since you want it for all doubles:
NSString* str = #"4.6";
double duble = [str floatValue];
NSInteger final = 0;
NSInteger temp = floor(duble);
double remainder = duble - temp;
if (remainder > 0.5) {
final = ceil(duble);
}else{
final = floor(duble);
}
NSLog(#"%ld",(long)final);
check this
float floatVal = 2.6111;
long roundedVal = lroundf(floatVal);
NSLog(#"%ld",roundedVal);
plz use this
lblHours.text =[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.02f", [yourstrvalue doubleValue]];
update
NSString *a =#"2.67899";
NSString *b =[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.01f", [a doubleValue]];
// b will contane only one vlue after decimal
NSArray *array = [b componentsSeparatedByString:#"."];
int yourRating;
if ([[array lastObject] integerValue] > 5) {
yourRating = [[array firstObject] intValue]+1;
}
else
{
yourRating = [[array firstObject] intValue];
}
NSLog(#"%d",yourRating);
Try below code I have tested it and work for every digits,
NSString *str = #"2.7";
NSArray *arr = [str componentsSeparatedByString:#"."];
NSString *firstDigit = [arr objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *secondDigit = [arr objectAtIndex:1];
if (secondDigit.length > 1) {
secondDigit = [secondDigit substringFromIndex:1];
}
int secondDigitIntValue = [secondDigit intValue];
int firstDigitIntValue = [firstDigit intValue];
if (secondDigitIntValue > 5) {
firstDigitIntValue = firstDigitIntValue + 1;
}
NSLog(#"final result : %d",firstDigitIntValue);
Or another solution - little bit short
NSString *str1 = #"2.444";
float my = [str1 floatValue];
NSString *resultString = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.f",my]; // if want result in string
NSLog(#"%#",resultString);
int resultInInt = [resultString intValue]; //if want result in integer
To round value to the nearest integer use roundf() function of math.
import math.h first:
#import "math.h"
Example,
float ValueToRoundPositive;
ValueToRoundPositive = 8.4;
int RoundedValue = (int)roundf(ValueToRoundPositive); //Output: 8
NSLog(#"roundf(%f) = %d", ValueToRoundPositive, RoundedValue);
float ValueToRoundNegative;
ValueToRoundNegative = -6.49;
int RoundedValueNegative = (int)roundf(ValueToRoundNegative); //Output: -6
NSLog(#"roundf(%f) = %d", ValueToRoundNegative, RoundedValueNegative);
Read doc here for more information:
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man3/roundf.3.html
NSString *value = #"1.23456";
float floatvalue = value.floatValue;
int rounded = roundf(floatvalue);
NSLog(#"%d",rounded);
if you what the round with greater value please use ceil(floatvalue)
if you what the round with lesser value please use floor(floatvalue)
You can round off decimal values by using NSNumberFormatter
There are some examples you can go through:
NSNumberFormatter *format = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init];
[format setPositiveFormat:#"0.##"];
NSLog(#"%#", [format stringFromNumber:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:25.342]]);
NSLog(#"%#", [format stringFromNumber:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:25.3]]);
NSLog(#"%#", [format stringFromNumber:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:25.0]]);
Corresponding results:
2010-08-22 15:04:10.614 a.out[6954:903] 25.34
2010-08-22 15:04:10.616 a.out[6954:903] 25.3
2010-08-22 15:04:10.617 a.out[6954:903] 25
NSString* str = #"2.61111111";
double value = [str doubleValue];
2.5 -> 3: int num = value+0.5;
2.6 -> 3: int num = value+0.4;
Set as your need:
double factor = 0.4
if (value < 0) value *= -1;
int num = value+factor;
NSLog(#"%d",num);

Objective C, Trim a float

I have float like 3500,435232123. All I want to know if exists (in Objective C) a function that let me keep just the last 4 digits in my case is 2123.
You can use NSNumberFormatter
NSNumberFormatter *format = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc]init];
[format setNumberStyle:NSNumberFormatterDecimalStyle];
[format setRoundingMode:NSNumberFormatterRoundHalfUp];
[format setMaximumFractionDigits:4];
[format setMinimumFractionDigits:4];
string = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",[format stringFromNumber:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:65.50055]] ;
Or simply
NSString *string = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.04f", floatValue];
If you want only last four digits, convert the float to a string
NSString *string = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%f", floatValue];
and get the last four characters
NSString *lastFour = [string substringFromIndex: [string length] - 4];
It you want to get the decimal part, you can do x - floor(x). For instance:
float x = 3500,435232123;
NSString *string = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.04f", x - floor(x)];
And to get 4 decimal digits do what Fawad Masud says.
No there is no such function, as far as i know. But here is a way to achieve exactly what you want.
First you have to round it to four digits after point:
NSString *exampleString = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.04f", valueToRound];
Then you get the location for the comma inside the exampleString:
NSRange commaRange = [valueString rangeOfString:#","];
Finally you create the finalString with the values from that NSRange. The substring starts at commaRange.location+commaRange.lengthbecause thats the index directly after the comma.
NSString *finalString = [valueString substringWithRange:NSMakeRange(commaRange.location+commaRange.length,valueString.length-commaRange.location-commaRange.length)];
Hope that helps you.
I think is no predefined function for that.
and the solution i thought of is:
float floatNum = 3500.435232123;
converting float number to string and trim/substring the string, like for example:
NSString *stringFloat = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%f", floatNum];
NSString *newString = [stringFloat substringWithRange:NSMakeRange(stringFloat.length - 4, stringFloat.length)];
NSLog(#"%#", newString);
another is something like:
NSString *stringFloat = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%f", floatNum];
//separates the floating number to
arr[0] = whole number
arr[1] = decimals
NSArray *arr=[str componentsSeparatedByString:#"."];
since you just want to work on the decimal, i think arr[1] is what you need..
NSString *stringDecimals = (NSString *)arr[1];
if ( stringDecimals.length > 4) //check the length of the decimals then cut if exceeds 4 character..
{
stringDecimals = [stringDecimals substringWithRange:NSMakeRange(stringDecimals.length - 4, stringDecimals.length)];
}
NSLog(#"stringDecimals: %#", stringDecimals);

Time Format so there's only 4 digits with a ":" in the middle

I want the concatenated NSString I have to be output in the format "00:00", the 0s being the digits in the concatenated string. And if there are not enough characters in the NSString, the other digits are made to be 0.
And if there are more than 4 digits than I want to only have the furthest right digits.
I have done this in Java before, I am assuming it's possible in Objective-C as well.
UIButton *button = sender;
NSString *concatenated = [self.input stringByAppendingString: button.titleLabel.text];
self.input = concatenated;
self.userOutput.text = self.input;
For example, I might get "89" as my concatenated string. I then want, self.input = 00:89.
OR
if I get 89374374 from my concatenated string, I then want self.input = 43:74.
I hope I am being clear
The following method should give the desired output:
- (NSString *)getFormattedTimeStringFromString:(NSString *)string
{
int input = [string intValue];
int mins = input % 100;
input /= 100;
int hours = input % 100;
return [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%02d:%02d", hours, mins];
}
You can use this by calling
self.input = [self getFormattedTimeStringFromString:concatenated];
Like this:
NSDateFormatter * df = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[df setDateFormat:#"HH:mm"];
NSString *dateTimeStr = [df stringFromDate:[NSDate date]];
if ([concatenated length] == 2) {
self.input = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"00:%#",concatenated];
}
else
{
NSString *test = [concatenated substringFromIndex:[concatenated length] -4];
self.input = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#:%#",[test substringToIndex:2],[test substringFromIndex:[test length]-2]];
}
Please try above code it will fail if [concatenated length] is 3 or 1 , modify it accordingly

Set UILabel character limit?

I have a UILabel that shows the outside temperature, the problem is, sometimes it shows it as a XX.XXº format instead of the normal XXº or XXXº format used to show temperature, is there anyway to force the label to only show the temperature without the decimals or at least force it to only be able to use 2 characters?
You can use this to eliminate the decimals:
NSString* numberString = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.0f", d]; // 0 means no decimals
Otherwise I believe this will work to limit the number of chars to 2:
NSNumberFormatter *formatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init];
formatter.usesSignificantDigits = YES;
formatter.maximumSignificantDigits = 2;
I have not really used NSNumberFormatter very much though.
NSString *temp = [galleryEntryTree objectForKey:#"description"];
if ([temp length] > 500) {
NSRange range = [temp rangeOfComposedCharacterSequencesForRange:(NSRange){0, 500}];
temp = [temp substringWithRange:range];
temp = [temp stringByAppendingString:#" …"];
}
coverView.label2.text = temp;
You may also use substring method
NSString *newformat = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",[temperature substringWithRange:NSMakeRange(0,2)]];
In this case temperature is a string that you set for your label and you are only retrieving the 1st 2 digits only

NSNumberformatter add extra zero

I'm looking for a way to display "1" as "01", so basically everything below 10 should have a leading 0.
What would be the best way to do this?
I know I can just use a simple if structure to do this check, but this should be possible with NSNumberformatter right?
If you just want an NSString, you can simply do this:
NSString *myNumber = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%02d", number];
The %02d is from C. %nd means there must be at least n characters in the string and if there are less, pad it with 0's. Here's an example:
NSString *example = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%010d", number];
If the number variable only was two digits long, it would be prefixed by eight zeroes. If it was 9 digits long, it would be prefixed by a single zero.
If you want to use NSNumberFormatter, you could do this:
NSNumberFormatter * numberFormatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init];
[numberFormatter setPaddingPosition:NSNumberFormatterPadBeforePrefix];
[numberFormatter setPaddingCharacter:#"0"];
[numberFormatter setMinimumIntegerDigits:10];
NSNumber *number = [NSNumber numberWithInt:numberVariableHere];
----UPDATE------
I think this solves your problem:
[_minutes addObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:i]];
return [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%02d", [[_minutes objectAtIndex:row] intValue]];
FIXED for Swift 3
let x = 999.1243
let formatter = NumberFormatter()
formatter.minimumFractionDigits = 1 // for float
formatter.maximumFractionDigits = 1 // for float
formatter.minimumIntegerDigits = 10 // digits do want before decimal
formatter.paddingPosition = .beforePrefix
formatter.paddingCharacter = "0"
let s = formatter.string(from: NSNumber(floatLiteral: x))!
OUTPUT
"0000000999.1"
