Convert integer to English
Given a non-negative integer up to $999\,999\,999$, write it in English.
The input number can be in any form other than English (though you'll typically want to use the native integer type of your language).
The numbers must be formatted as follows:
-
Two-digit numbers must be written with dashes where applicable e.g.
twenty-five, nottwenty five. -
powers of ten start with “one”, e.g.
one hundred, not justhundred. -
The tens/ones part, if not zero, must be separated from the hundreds part with
and, e.g.two hundred and five, nottwo hundred five. -
The above rules are applied also to the factors of thousand and million.
-
moreover the global tens/ones part has to be separated by
andwhenever anything larger is present, even if the hundreds part is missing. -
Adjacent words must be separated by a single space, or a single dash without space where applicable.
-
Leading and/or trailing spaces are not allowed. However, if the result is printed, a single trailing newline (not preceded by any spaces) is allowed.
