Number to words currency decimal

Question

I have this code to get Numbers to words and it works, but I have a requirement for my application and that is :

Example 1 : What the program does, let's take this number : 27,59 - The code will take me to "doua sute sapte zeci si 59 bani. Is ok, but :

Example 2 : When the number is 27.00 the result is : doua zeci si sapte si 00 bani, and the result I want only when some number has .00 to cut the 'si 00 bani' and get from 27.00 = doua zeci si sapte lei than doua zeci si sapte lei si 00 bani. Thank you

Answer 1

What you need is a condition to check the decimal value. An easy way to do this is the Decimal.Remainder() method provided by .net.

Just change this

builder.AppendFormat("lei si {0:00} bani", (value - (long)value) * 100);

To include a condition for your 00...

// You always need "lei" right?
builder.AppendFormat("lei");

// This code simply divides the decimal value by 1; and only adds "si NN bani" if there's a remainder
if (Decimal.Remainder(value, 1) > 0) {
    builder.AppendFormat(" si {0:00} bani", (value - (long)value) * 100);
}
