It may have been a better idea to have called this this article “How to Convert Floats to Words”, but since I’m talking about currency, I thought using Decimal was more accurate. Anyway, a couple years ago, I wrote about how to convert numbers to Python. The main reason I’m revisiting this topic is because I ended up needing to do it again and I found my own example rather lacking. It doesn’t show how to actually use it to convert something like “10.12″ into “ten dollars and twelve cents”. So I’m going to show you how to do it in this article and then we’ll also look at some of the alternatives that my readers gave me.


Back to the Drawing Board

To start out, we’ll take the original code and add some tests on the end to make sure it works the way we want. Then I’ll show you a slightly different way to go about it. Finally, we will look at two other projects that attempt to do this sort of thing as well.

CODE:
