Hello readers, In this tutorial, I am going to create a User Defined Function to convert Number into Word.
User Defined Function to Convert Number into Word:
Suppose you have a requirement where you have to show Amount of some kind into both Number and Word. I am creating a User Defined Function that will Convert Number into Word.
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.udfNumberToWord (
@pNumber Numeric (38, 0)
) RETURNS VARCHAR(8000)
AS BEGIN
DECLARE @inputNumber VARCHAR(38)
DECLARE @NumbersTable TABLE (number CHAR(2), word VARCHAR(10))
DECLARE @outputString VARCHAR(8000)
DECLARE @length INT
DECLARE @counter INT
DECLARE @loops INT
DECLARE @position INT
DECLARE @chunk CHAR(3) -- for chunks of 3 numbers
DECLARE @tensones CHAR(2)
DECLARE @hundreds CHAR(1)
DECLARE @tens CHAR(1)
DECLARE @ones CHAR(1)
IF @pNumber = 0 Return 'Zero'
-- initialize the variables
SELECT @inputNumber = CONVERT(varchar(38), @pNumber)
, @outputString = ''
, @counter = 1
SELECT @length = LEN(@inputNumber)
, @position = LEN(@inputNumber) - 2
, @loops = LEN(@inputNumber)/3
-- make sure there is an extra loop added for the remaining numbers
IF LEN(@inputNumber) % 3 <> 0 SET @loops = @loops + 1
-- insert data for the numbers and words
INSERT INTO @NumbersTable SELECT '00', ''
UNION ALL SELECT '01', 'one' UNION ALL SELECT '02', 'two'
UNION ALL SELECT '03', 'three' UNION ALL SELECT '04', 'four'
UNION ALL SELECT '05', 'five' UNION ALL SELECT '06', 'six'
UNION ALL SELECT '07', 'seven' UNION ALL SELECT '08', 'eight'
UNION ALL SELECT '09', 'nine' UNION ALL SELECT '10', 'ten'
UNION ALL SELECT '11', 'eleven' UNION ALL SELECT '12', 'twelve'
UNION ALL SELECT '13', 'thirteen' UNION ALL SELECT '14', 'fourteen'
UNION ALL SELECT '15', 'fifteen' UNION ALL SELECT '16', 'sixteen'
UNION ALL SELECT '17', 'seventeen' UNION ALL SELECT '18', 'eighteen'
UNION ALL SELECT '19', 'nineteen' UNION ALL SELECT '20', 'twenty'
UNION ALL SELECT '30', 'thirty' UNION ALL SELECT '40', 'forty'
UNION ALL SELECT '50', 'fifty' UNION ALL SELECT '60', 'sixty'
UNION ALL SELECT '70', 'seventy' UNION ALL SELECT '80', 'eighty'
UNION ALL SELECT '90', 'ninety'
WHILE @counter <= @loops BEGIN
-- get chunks of 3 numbers at a time, padded with leading zeros
SET @chunk = RIGHT('000' + SUBSTRING(@inputNumber, @position, 3), 3)
IF @chunk <> '000' BEGIN
SELECT @tensones = SUBSTRING(@chunk, 2, 2)
, @hundreds = SUBSTRING(@chunk, 1, 1)
, @tens = SUBSTRING(@chunk, 2, 1)
, @ones = SUBSTRING(@chunk, 3, 1)
-- If twenty or less, use the word directly from @NumbersTable
IF CONVERT(INT, @tensones) <= 20 OR @Ones='0' BEGIN
SET @outputString = (SELECT word
FROM @NumbersTable
WHERE @tensones = number)
+ CASE @counter WHEN 1 THEN '' -- No name
WHEN 2 THEN ' thousand ' WHEN 3 THEN ' million '
WHEN 4 THEN ' billion ' WHEN 5 THEN ' trillion '
WHEN 6 THEN ' quadrillion ' WHEN 7 THEN ' quintillion '
WHEN 8 THEN ' sextillion ' WHEN 9 THEN ' septillion '
WHEN 10 THEN ' octillion ' WHEN 11 THEN ' nonillion '
WHEN 12 THEN ' decillion ' WHEN 13 THEN ' undecillion '
ELSE '' END
+ @outputString
END
ELSE BEGIN -- break down the ones and the tens separately
SET @outputString = ' '
+ (SELECT word
FROM @NumbersTable
WHERE @tens + '0' = number)
+ '-'
+ (SELECT word
FROM @NumbersTable
WHERE '0'+ @ones = number)
+ CASE @counter WHEN 1 THEN '' -- No name
WHEN 2 THEN ' thousand ' WHEN 3 THEN ' million '
WHEN 4 THEN ' billion ' WHEN 5 THEN ' trillion '
WHEN 6 THEN ' quadrillion ' WHEN 7 THEN ' quintillion '
WHEN 8 THEN ' sextillion ' WHEN 9 THEN ' septillion '
WHEN 10 THEN ' octillion ' WHEN 11 THEN ' nonillion '
WHEN 12 THEN ' decillion ' WHEN 13 THEN ' undecillion '
ELSE '' END
+ @outputString
END
-- now get the hundreds
IF @hundreds <> '0' BEGIN
SET @outputString = (SELECT word
FROM @NumbersTable
WHERE '0' + @hundreds = number)
+ ' hundred '
+ @outputString
END
END
SELECT @counter = @counter + 1
, @position = @position - 3
END
-- Remove any double spaces
SET @outputString = LTRIM(RTRIM(REPLACE(@outputString, ' ', ' ')))
SET @outputstring = UPPER(LEFT(@outputstring, 1)) + SUBSTRING(@outputstring, 2, 8000)
RETURN @outputString -- return the result
END
