NAME Parse::Number::EN - Pattern to match number VERSION version 0.03 SYNOPSIS use Parse::Number::EN qw(parse_number_en $Pat); my @a = map {parse_number_id(text=>$_)} ("12,345.67", "-1.2e3", "x123", "1.23", "1,23"); # @a = (12345.67, -1200, undef, 1.23, 1) my @b = map {/^$Pat$/ ? 1:0} ("12,345.67", "-1.2e3", "x123", "1,23"); # @b = (1, 1, 0, 0) DESCRIPTION This module provides $Pat and parse_number_en(). VARIABLES None are exported by default, but they are exportable. $Pat (REGEX) A regex for quickly matching/extracting number from text. It's not 100% perfect (the extracted number might not be valid), but it's simple and fast. FUNCTIONS None are exported by default, but they are exportable. SEE ALSO Lingua::EN::Words2Nums Other Parse::Number::* modules. FUNCTIONS parse_number_en(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta] Parse number from English text. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * text* => *str* The input text that contains number. Return value: Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.
