note 89235 added to function.number-format

Writing a function to get English ordinals for numbers is a problem every computer science student will face. Here's my solution - nice, short and simple: <?php function st($i) { switch( floor($i/10) % 10 ) { default: switch( $i % 10 ) { case 1: return 'st'; case 2: return 'nd'; case 3: return 'rd'; } case 1: } return 'th'; } ?> ---- Server IP: 92.48.74.199 Probable Submitter: 195.24.233.122 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.number-format.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/89235 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89235/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89235/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89235/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89235/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89235/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89235/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89235 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/89235 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
