Program to print the given digit in words

Last Updated : 28 Mar, 2023

Given a number N, the task is to convert every digit of the number into words.

Examples:

Input: N = 1234
Output: One Two Three Four
Explanation:
Every digit of the given number has been converted into its corresponding word.

Input: N = 567
Output: Five Six Seven

Approach: The idea is to traverse through every digit of the number and use switch-case. Since there are only ten possible values for digits, ten cases can be defined inside a switch block. For each digit, its corresponding case block will be executed and that digit will get printed in words.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

CPP

   // C++ implementation of the above approach
 
#include "bits/stdc++.h"
using namespace std;
 
// Function to return the word
// of the corresponding digit
void printValue(char digit)
{
 
    // Switch block to check for each digit c
    switch (digit) {
 
    // For digit 0
    case '0':
        cout << "Zero ";
        break;
 
    // For digit 1
    case '1':
        cout << "One ";
        break;
 
    // For digit 2
    case '2':
        cout << "Two ";
        break;
 
    // For digit 3
    case '3':
        cout << "Three ";
        break;
 
    // For digit 4
    case '4':
        cout << "Four ";
        break;
 
    // For digit 5
    case '5':
        cout << "Five ";
        break;
 
    // For digit 6
    case '6':
        cout << "Six ";
        break;
 
    // For digit 7
    case '7':
        cout << "Seven ";
        break;
 
    // For digit 8
    case '8':
        cout << "Eight ";
        break;
 
    // For digit 9
    case '9':
        cout << "Nine ";
        break;
    }
}
 
// Function to iterate through every
// digit in the given number
void printWord(string N)
{
    int i, length = N.length();
 
    // Finding each digit of the number
    for (i = 0; i < length; i++) {
 
        // Print the digit in words
        printValue(N[i]);
    }
}
 
// Driver code

{
    string N = "123";
    printWord(N);
    return 0;
}

Auxiliary Space: O(1), As constant extra space is used.

Recursive Approach

The idea is to recursively call the function till the number becomes zero by dividing it by 10 and storing the remainder in a variable. Then we print the digit from the string array as the digit will store the index of the number to be printed from the array.

we print the number after the recursive call to maintain the order of digits in the input number, if we print before the recursive function call the digit name will be printed in reversed order. Since we are dividing n by 10 in each recursive call the recurrence relation will be T(n) = T(n/10) + 1

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

   //C++ implementation of above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
void ToDigits(int n, string arr[])
{
 
    // base case
    if (n == 0) {
        return;
    }
 
    // storing the last digit of the number and updating
    // number
    int digit = n % 10;
    n = n / 10;
 
    // recursive call
    ToDigits(n, arr);
 
    // printing the digits form the string array storing name
    // of the given index
    cout << arr[digit] << " ";
}
 
int main()
{
 
    string arr[10]
        = { "zero", "one", "two",   "three", "four",
            "five", "six", "seven", "eight", "nine" };
    int n;
    n = 123;  //it can be changed to take user input
 
    ToDigits(n, arr);
 
    return 0;

Approach 3 : By using Python Dictionary.

Algorithm –

Create a dictionary named digits, assign key-value pairs of numbers to words respectively, as shown in code below.
Iterate the string character one by one and print the value of the dictionary, key associated with it.

C++

   #include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <map>
 
using namespace std;

        {'5', "Five"}, {'6', "Six"}, {'7', "Seven"}, {'8', "Eight"}, 
        {'9', "Nine"}, {'0', "Zero"}
    };
