Number Words
Convert numbers to approximated text expressions like 'less than a quarter' for natural numbers, percentages, and fractions in multiple languages.
What is Number Words?
Number Words is a Clojure/Java library that converts numeric values into human-readable text approximations for natural numbers, percentages, and fractions. It solves the problem of presenting precise numeric data in a more interpretable, natural language format, such as turning 0.231 into 'less than a quarter' or 102 into 'over one hundred'.
Developers building text generation systems, data reporting tools, or applications that need to present numeric data in a human-friendly way, especially those requiring multi-language support.
Developers choose Number Words for its flexible approximation scales, configurable hedges, and built-in support for multiple languages, making it ideal for generating natural numerical expressions in reports or automated text systems.
