Is there a library or a class/function that I can use to convert an integer to it\'s verbal representation?
Example input:
4,567,788`
Here is the spanish version:
public static string numeroALetras(int number)
{
if (number == 0)
return "cero";
if (number < 0)
return "menos " + numeroALetras(Math.Abs(number));
string words = "";
if ((number / 1000000) > 0)
{
words += numeroALetras(number / 1000000) + " millón ";
number %= 1000000;
}
if ((number / 1000) > 0)
{
words += (number / 1000) == 1? "mil ": numeroALetras(number / 1000) + " mil ";

This class perfectly converts your float or double (till 2 precision). Just copy and paste in your IDE and see the result.

EDIT: brought code over from blog post
I actually needed this for an app I'm working on, but wasn't happy with any of the solutions here. FYI, this solution takes advantage of C# 7.0's support for local functions. I also used the new digit separator to make the larger numbers more readable.
public static class NumberExtensions
{
private const string negativeWord = "negative";
private static readonly Dictionary<ulong, string> _wordMap = new Dictionary<ulong, string>
{
[1_000_000_000_000_000_000] = "quintillion",
[1_000_000_000_000_000] = "quadrillion",

[19] = "nineteen",
[18] = "eighteen",
[17] = "seventeen",

};
public static string ToWords(this short num)
{
var words = ToWords((ulong)Math.Abs(num));
return num < 0 ? $"{negativeWord} {words}" : words;
}
public static string ToWords(this ushort num)
{
return ToWords((ulong)num);
}
public static string ToWords(this int num)
{
var words = ToWords((ulong)Math.Abs(num));
return num < 0 ? $"{negativeWord} {words}" : words;
}
public static string ToWords(this uint num)
{
return ToWords((ulong)num);
}
public static string ToWords(this long num)
{
var words = ToWords((ulong)Math.Abs(num));
return num < 0 ? $"{negativeWord} {words}" : words;
}
public static string ToWords(this ulong num)
{
var sb = new StringBuilder();
var delimiter = String.Empty;
void AppendWords(ulong dividend)
{
void AppendDelimitedWord(ulong key)
{
sb.Append(delimiter);
sb.Append(_wordMap[key]);
delimiter = 20 <= key && key < 100 ? "-" : " ";
}
if (_wordMap.ContainsKey(dividend))
{
AppendDelimitedWord(dividend);
}
else
{
var divisor = _wordMap.First(m => m.Key <= dividend).Key;
var quotient = dividend / divisor;
var remainder = dividend % divisor;
if (quotient > 0 && divisor >= 100)
{
AppendWords(quotient);
}
AppendDelimitedWord(divisor);
if (remainder > 0)
{
AppendWords(remainder);
}
}
}
AppendWords(num);
return sb.ToString();
}
}
The meat is in the last ToWords
overload.
Though this is kind of old question, I have implemented this functionality with more detailed approach

MyDictionary.Add(1000000000, "billion");
MyDictionary.Add(1000000, "million");
MyDictionary.Add(1000, "thousand");
MyDictionary.Add(100, "hundread");
MyDictionary.Add(90, "ninety");
MyDictionary.Add(80, "eighty");

FYI: i have user string interpolation which is only available in 4.6.1
I was tasked to create a WEB API that converts numbers to words using C#.
Can be whole number or with decimal points in 48 hours time.
The call will be coming from a front-end application using Ajax Post method and return the converted result in the webpage.
I've publicly shared that project in the GitHub for reference: https://github.com/marvinglennlacuna/NumbersToWordsConverter.Api
With the following technical implementatation in placed:
And with technical documentation about the following as well:
**Result via Web Page (US-001) **
US-001 Convert Numbers to Words via web page process
US-001 Convert Numbers to Words via web page output
Result via Postman (US-002)
US-002 - Convert Numbers to Words via Postman process
US-002 - Convert Numbers to Words via Postman output
I think it's just worth sharing a working solution in the case you need it for reference in interview/code test/school or for fun only.
