number-name

Converts a number into its name.

See the demo here.

Why?

Inspired by number-to-words. Thinking I could improve on the code to include big integers, I looked for some info and found Landon Curt Noll’s Web page describing the reconstructed English naming system of numbers. I decided to port his Perl script into JavaScript.
