So, I got bored and wrote out scripts that digitize text and textualize digits. What I mean by that is that it'll take input like "1236408" and produce "one million two hundred thirty six thousand four hundred eight" and vice-versa. There's a dumb function and a smart one. The smart one will actually compute things like you would normally, whereas the dumb one does more of a "one two three" is "1 2 3" type thing. The only other project I've seen like this is Pear's Number Words (http://pear.php.net/package/Numbers_Words). Anyone know any others? Also, I'm wondering, does the PEAR project require a php module for use? If so, I think it might be worth putting this script up for anyone else to use. For now I just needed some feedback on the general idea. Depending on that I'll post up the code here for critiquing. Thanks. :)
