french-numbers

French representation of numbers in Rust

The french-numbers crate for Rust allows the formatting of numbers in the French language in a Rust program.

A command-line utility allows to create those numbers without any programming:

% french-numbers --prefix --feminine 99 102
99 quatre-vingt-dix-neuf
100 cent
101 cent-une
102 cent-deux

% french-numbers 7293742897481
sept-billions-deux-cent-quatre-vingt-treize-milliards-sept-cent-quarante-deux-\
millions-huit-cent-quatre-vingt-dix-sept-mille-quatre-cent-quatre-vingt-un
