This module provides a number-formatting function. This function can be used from #invoke or from other Lua modules.
This module is used by {{tl|FXConvert}}
== Use from other Lua modules ==
To use the module from normal wiki pages, no special preparation is needed. If you are using the module from another Lua module, first you need to load it, like this:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
local mf = require('Module:Wordify')
</syntaxhighlight>
(The <code>mf</code> variable stands for '''M'''odule wordi'''F'''y; you can choose something more descriptive if you prefer.)
Most functions in the module have a version for Lua and a version for #invoke. It is possible to use the #invoke functions from other Lua modules, but using the Lua functions has the advantage that you do not need to access a Lua [[mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#Frame object|frame object]]. Lua functions are preceded by <code>_</code>, whereas #invoke functions are not.
== main ==
{{#invoke:Wordify|main|''x''|''prec=''|''lk=''|''numsys=''|''lang=''|''script=''|''state=''|''case=''|''class=''|''possessed=''|''person=''|''plural=''|''exclude=''|''simplify=''}}
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
mf._wordify(x, prec, lk, numsys, lang, script, state, case, class, possessed, person, plural, exclude, simplify)
</syntaxhighlight>
Simplify a number x using a word denoting an order of magnitude.
* <code>numsys</code> can be <code>short</code> (short scale, the default), <code>ind </code>(Indian scale), or <code>long</code> (long scale)
* <code>prec</code> is the digits of precision to output
* if <code>lk</code> is true, the words will be linked to an explanation
* <code>lang</code> allows to specify the locale for formatting and wording
* <code>script</code> allows to specify a script if the language supports more than one
* <code>state</code> can be indefinite, definite, or construct
* <code>case</code> allows to specify a grammatical case
* <code>class</code> allows to specify a noun class
* if <code>possessed</code> is true, it designates that there are multiple possessed objects
* <code>person</code> designates the person (<code>1</code>, <code>2</code>, <code>3</code>)
* if <code>plural</code> is true, it indicates that the person is plural
* <code>exclude</code> indicates the persons to exclude (<code>2</code>, <code>3</code>)
* if <code>simplify</code> is true, only the order of magnitude words will be output
=== Notes ===
*The function is currently not applying declensions beyond the base case for some of the supported languages.
*If a case that does not exist in a certain language is requested, the function may give an error or just return the base result.
*The function understands case arguments that are not a word in a single language, like "akkusative".

The elements <identifier>, <string>, and <integer> are as defined for the Lua language and those ending in <code>-function</code> are Lua functions with signatures that can be found in the code.
A certain language might not be supported by the current algorithm, in this case it should be extended for the new kind.

This module is used by {{tl|FXConvert}}
== Use from other Lua modules ==
To use the module from normal wiki pages, no special preparation is needed. If you are using the module from another Lua module, first you need to load it, like this:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
local mf = require('Module:Wordify')
</syntaxhighlight>
(The <code>mf</code> variable stands for '''M'''odule wordi'''F'''y; you can choose something more descriptive if you prefer.)
Most functions in the module have a version for Lua and a version for #invoke. It is possible to use the #invoke functions from other Lua modules, but using the Lua functions has the advantage that you do not need to access a Lua [[mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#Frame object|frame object]]. Lua functions are preceded by <code>_</code>, whereas #invoke functions are not.
== main ==
{{#invoke:Wordify|main|''x''|''prec=''|''lk=''|''numsys=''|''lang=''|''script=''|''state=''|''case=''|''class=''|''possessed=''|''person=''|''plural=''|''exclude=''|''simplify=''}}
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
mf._wordify(x, prec, lk, numsys, lang, script, state, case, class, possessed, person, plural, exclude, simplify)
</syntaxhighlight>
Simplify a number x using a word denoting an order of magnitude.
* <code>numsys</code> can be <code>short</code> (short scale, the default), <code>ind </code>(Indian scale), or <code>long</code> (long scale)
* <code>prec</code> is the digits of precision to output
* if <code>lk</code> is true, the words will be linked to an explanation
* <code>lang</code> allows to specify the locale for formatting and wording
* <code>script</code> allows to specify a script if the language supports more than one
* <code>state</code> can be indefinite, definite, or construct
* <code>case</code> allows to specify a grammatical case
* <code>class</code> allows to specify a noun class
* if <code>possessed</code> is true, it designates that there are multiple possessed objects
* <code>person</code> designates the person (<code>1</code>, <code>2</code>, <code>3</code>)
* if <code>plural</code> is true, it indicates that the person is plural
* <code>exclude</code> indicates the persons to exclude (<code>2</code>, <code>3</code>)
* if <code>simplify</code> is true, only the order of magnitude words will be output
=== Notes ===
*The function is currently not applying declensions beyond the base case for some of the supported languages.
*If a case that does not exist in a certain language is requested, the function may give an error or just return the base result.
*The function understands case arguments that are not a word in a single language, like "akkusative".

The elements <identifier>, <string>, and <integer> are as defined for the Lua language and those ending in <code>-function</code> are Lua functions with signatures that can be found in the code.
A certain language might not be supported by the current algorithm, in this case it should be extended for the new kind.
