This is an article on Numbers to Words in PHP using PEAR package in PHP.
Some web applications need to display numbers in words, like e-commerce, shopping web applications, so PEAR brings a package named Numbers_Words which converts numbers to words in 2 lines of PHP code.
Checkout the example below.

Code: PHP
<?php
 require('Numbers/Words.php');
 
     $number = 100254;
     $nw = new Numbers_Words();
     $numw = $nw->toWords($number);
 
     print $numw;
 ?>

Output:
Code:
one hundred thousand two hundred fifty-four
More can be done with with Numbers_Words, like setting the locale so that the output is formatted according to the local, you can find Numbers_Words documentation here.
