Number::Spell looks like a good module for this sort of thing. But do you know of any modules that will handle ordinals? Number::Spell spells out cardinals.

(For the numerically impaired... cardinals count items (as in "one, two, three"), ordinals order items (as in "first, second, third"). You can tell cardinals by their red robes...)

UPDATE: Not that I'm complaining, but... I just noticed that this comment has a fairly decent reputation, higher than most of my comments, and equal to what I feel is a deserving comment posted on another thread Re: Search for dupe && append char if found.

This comment was a smart-assed, throwaway comment (or at least, I intended it to be). Why is it so highly rated?

I'm not trolling for votes, just curious.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
