Quick question -- In .Net (VB more specifically, but that doesn't really matter), is there a way to change the format of a number from one culture to another strictly through the that number's type?

In PHP, is there an easy way to convert a number to a word? For instance, 27 to twenty-seven. ...
I inherited a project that uses SQL Server 200x, wherein a column that stores a value that is always considered as a percentage in the problem domain is stored as its greater than 1 decimal equivalent. For example, 70% (0.7, literally) is stored as 70, 100% as 100, etc. Aside from the need to remember to * 0.01 on retrieved values and * ...
In the last 3 companies I've worked at, the phone number columns are of type varchar(n). The reason being that they might want to store extensions (ext. 333). But in every case, the "-" characters are stripped out when inserting and updating. I don't understand why the ".ext" characters are okay to store but not the "-" character. Has an...

I'm seeing conflicting references in Oracles documentation. Is there any difference between how decimals are stored in a FLOAT and a NUMBER types in the database? As I recall from C, et al, a float has accuracy limitations that an int doesn't have. R.g., For 'float's, 0.1(Base 10) is approximated as 0.110011001100110011001101(Base 2) wh...

I need the perfect algorithm or C# function to calculate the difference (distance) between 2 decimal numbers. For example the difference between: 100 and 25 is 75 100 and -25 is 125 -100 and -115 is 15 -500 and 100 is 600 Is there a C# function or a very elegant algorithm to calculate this or I have to go and handle every case separate...
How do I map numbers, linearly, between a and b to go between c and d. That is, I want numbers between 2 and 6 to map to numbers between 10 and 20... but I need the generalized case. My brain is fried. ...
Hey, I was listening to the steve yegge podcast (#29, around 21:29), and in part of it, they were talking about "how to tell if the person you're talking to is smart", and they said that one way was to talk about "smart people things" (I'm paraphrasing), like "piano numbers" and "lambda calculus". I'm secure enough to admit that I'm not ...

Hi all, I do my php work on my dev box at home, where I've got a rudimentary LAMP setup. When I look at my website on my home box, any numbers I echo are automatically truncated to the least required precision. Eg 2 is echoed as 2, 2.2000 is echoed as 2.2. On the production box, all the numbers are echoed with at least one unnecessar...
Is there a better, more elegant (and/or possibly faster) way than boolean isNumber = false; try{ Double.valueOf(myNumber); isNumber = true; } catch (NumberFormatException e) { } ...? Edit: Since I can't pick two answers I'm going with the regex one because a) it's elegant and b) saying "Jon Skeet solved the problem" is a tau...
